2021 Map of Water Valley West

About this map

Water Valley serves as a local hub at the meeting point of Panola, Lafayette, and Yalobusha counties, anchored by the Yalobusha County Courthouse. This landscape is defined by the wetlands and meandering paths of the Yocona River and its many tributaries, including Bynum Creek, Flowers Creek, and Otoucalofa Creek. The numerous rural cemeteries such as Camp Ground Cem, Pine Spring Cem, and Kind Providence Cem point to long-established family homesteads scattered across the hills. Infrastructure like the Water Valley Municipal Airport and the Prophet Bridge Crossing illustrate the area's development, while the extensive network of county roads, such as Old Water Valley Rd and Pope Water Valley Rd, connects these isolated landmarks through the intricate river bottomlands.
