2018 Map of Macon

About this map

The town of Macon serves as a focal point in this East Mississippi landscape, where a grid of streets like W Pearl St and N Jefferson St gives way to the winding course of the Noxubee River. This river, along with tributaries like Horse Hunters Cr and Macedonia Cr, defines the low-lying terrain and floodplains that dominate the surrounding area. Family and community heritage are anchored by several local burial grounds, including Odd Fellows Cem near the town center and the more outlying Salem Cem and DeJarnate Cem. The rural road network, featuring routes such as Polk-Farrar Rd and Running Water Rd, connects these scattered landmarks across the Noxubee County countryside. The abundance of water features, from Howard Lake to the small branches of Dry Cr, reflects a landscape deeply shaped by its natural drainage patterns.
