About this map

Pelahatchie serves as the central hub of this Rankin County landscape, situated where the interstate corridor meets local routes like Old Highway 80. The town's grid is dense with street-level detail, bordered by the winding path of Pelahatchie Cr to the south. Further west, the smaller settlement of Gulde sits near the Payne Airport, reflecting the rural development patterns of the early 21st century.

Genealogists and local historians will find a high concentration of burial sites throughout the region, including Little Zion Cem, Lodebar Cem, and Thornhill Cem. The landscape is marked by natural features such as Ware Hill and managed water bodies like County Lake. Evidence of local industry is preserved via the Pelahatchie Oil Field, illustrating the intersection of natural resources and community growth in central Mississippi.
