2020 Map of White Sand

About this map

White Sand serves as a central point in this rural Mississippi landscape, situated within a network of creek drainages that feed the West Hobolochitto Creek. The area is defined by its agricultural and residential development, evidenced by the clustered Oreck Farms and the residential layout at Enchanted Isle. Local transportation and utility are highlighted by the presence of Oreck Airport, accessed via Aviation Way, while historical footprints remain visible through family-named landmarks like Holdens Cem. Numerous small waterways, including Chinquapin Cr, Buckley Cr, and Turtle Creek, carve through the terrain, dictating the placement of rural roads like Buck Branch School Rd. This landscape reflects a contemporary Southern rural economy where family lands, small-scale aviation, and traditional cemeteries coexist alongside modern property tracts.
