Centreville sits at the geographic intersection of Wilkinson and Amite counties, serving as a focal point for the surrounding rural landscape in southwest Mississippi. The town's grid is dense with street-level detail, including W Cherokee St, Lafayette St, and W Main St. This area is particularly dense with small family and community burial grounds, illustrating a deep genealogical history. Beyond the town limits, the terrain is defined by the drainage of the Buffalo River to the north and numerous creeks like Little Comite Cr and Stafford Cr to the south. The small settlement of Whitaker appears in the southwestern corner, linked by Old Highway 33. The map's detail provides an excellent record of rural land divisions and the numerous cemeteries, such as Oaklawn Cem and Mount Zion Cem, that anchor this agricultural region.
