2020 Map of Philadelphia

About this map

Philadelphia serves as the central hub of this East Central Mississippi landscape, with the Neshoba County Courthouse anchoring the town’s grid. The surrounding terrain is defined by the winding course of the Pearl River and its numerous tributaries, including Ocobla Cr, Hurricane Cr, and Bogue Kentawka. Small outlying settlements such as Burnside, Longino, and Sandtown are connected by an extensive network of county roads, reflecting a rural community structure where local life revolves around the county seat. Genealogists will find several family and community landmarks, including Donald Cem, Hopewell Cem, and Jones Cem, scattered across the township lines. The presence of the Philadelphia Municipal Airport and Barrett Field highlights the area's modern transportation infrastructure alongside its traditional agricultural and river-based geography.
