The Greene County Mississippi map uses Leakesville as the central reference, then stretches east toward State Line and west toward McLain. Neely adds a southern rural marker in a large Piney Woods county where rivers and the Alabama boundary matter as much as town labels.

The decennial count and July 2025 estimate use different reference dates. Land and water measurements come from the 2025 Gazetteer. The density of 19.0 residents per square mile divides the 2020 population by 2025 land area and does not imply an even distribution among cities, farms, forest, or wetland.
Reading the Greene County Mississippi map
Start at Leakesville, where several state routes meet. US 98 provides the cleanest east-west line through McLain and toward State Line, while Neely helps distinguish the lower part of the county. The selected labels do not attempt to identify every settlement, forest road, or public-land parcel.
Boundary, Water, and Terrain
Greene County touches Wayne County on the north, Perry County on the west, and George County on the south. Alabama's Washington and Mobile counties lie beyond its straight eastern edge. The Chickasawhay River and Leaf River drain separate parts of the broad, wooded interior, so watercourses offer useful orientation away from the highways.
Settlement and Regional Context
Timber and forest management have long shaped this sparsely settled portion of southeastern Mississippi. Leakesville functions as the administrative and service center, while McLain and the smaller communities mark separate travel approaches. A modest increase between the 2020 count and 2025 estimate does not change the county's dispersed pattern.
Practical Map Uses
- Trace US 98 from McLain through Leakesville toward Alabama
- Compare the Chickasawhay and Leaf river sides of the county
- Place Neely relative to George County and the southern forest interior
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is State Line useful on a Greene County map?
State Line sits close to the Alabama boundary and makes the eastern edge easier to interpret. It also gives US 98 a recognizable destination beyond Leakesville.
What geographic context does Chickasawhay River provide from Leakesville toward Wayne?
From Leakesville, Chickasawhay River supplies a terrain or water cue for tracking the county toward Wayne; precise access still belongs to a specialized map.
