About this map

Poplarville serves as the focal point of this 2012 Pearl River County survey, showcasing its development as a regional center of education and commerce. The campus of Pearl River Community College is a prominent fixture on the northern edge of town, accompanied by Dobie Holden Stadium. This period of the early 21st century highlights a landscape transitioning from the traditional crossroads at West Poplarville and Nortac toward more modern infrastructure, including the Poplarville-Pearl River County Airport situated to the southeast.

Waterways like Jumpoff Cr, Juniper Cr, and Beaverdam Cr thread through the surrounding timberlands and pastures, connecting smaller outlying communities such as Derby and Juniper Grove. Local landmarks like the Pearl River Fairgrounds and Magnolia Lake reflect the area's ongoing blend of public service and recreation. The detailed road network, featuring routes like Childs Rd and Amacker Rd, provides a clear view of how rural homesteads are integrated into the growing periphery of the county seat.
