2015 Map of Starkville

About this map

Starkville serves as the central hub of this 2015 study, surrounded by a dense network of residential developments including Magnolia Heights, Nashdale, and Sheely Hills. The landscape is defined by the convergence of several waterways, notably Trim Cane Cr and Sand Cr to the north, and the curiously named Tobacco Juice Cr to the southwest. Educational and communal centers are prominent, with College View and Southdale bordering the grounds of Mississippi State University. For those researching local family history, the map identifies several burial sites, such as the Associated Reform Presbyterian Cem and Boyd Cem, alongside the George M Bryan Airport which anchors the city's southwestern edge. The map reflects a modern Southern university town where rapid suburban expansion meets traditional agricultural and creek-bottom lands, evidenced by the numerous named hills and residential parks that have replaced earlier rural tracts.
