About this map

Hattiesburg serves as a major regional hub where the Leaf River and its tributaries like Gordons Cr and Burketts Cr define the eastern landscape. The city’s identity as an educational center is clear through the prominent campuses of the Univ of Southern Mississippi and William Carey Univ. Residential growth is heavily mapped across named subdivisions like Westwood, Innswood, and Kensington Woods, illustrating the mid-century to modern expansion of the city limits westward from the original riverfront core.

Genealogists and local historians will find a dense network of cemeteries, including Bnai Israel Cem, Highland Cem, and Pine Ridge Cem. Transportation infrastructure is a dominant feature, from the Evelyn Gandy Pkwy to the Hattiesburg Bobby L Chain Municipal Airport in the southeast. Smaller communities such as Glendale and Palmers Crossing maintain their distinct labels despite the encroaching suburban sprawl, while natural landmarks like Mammoth Springs reflect the area's hydrology.
