==Geography==
Lowndes County lies on the east side of Mississippi, bordering the U.S. state of [[Alabama]]. Its terrain was completely wooded before settlement; at present its more level areas have been cleared and turned to agricultural or urban use, with the drainages (about 40% of the total area) still wooded.<ref>[https://www.google.com/maps/place/Lowndes+County,+MS/@33.4847697,-88.4407691,52209m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x8886c4897177cbc1:0x89eaea5155fb8373!8m2!3d33.473423!4d-88.4403883 ''Lowndes County MS'' (Google Maps, accessed 24 September 2020)]</ref> The Tennessee−Tombigbee Waterway flows south-southeastward through the center of the county, with a significant lock system ([[John C. Stennis Lock and Dam]]) near Columbus.
The county's highest point ({{convert|450 feet|ft|m|abbr=off|disp=x|/137 meters|sp=us}} ASL) is a small rise near the county's NE corner.<ref>[https://peakbagger.com/peak.aspx?pid=22171 ''Lourdes County High Point, Mississippi'' (PeakBagger.com, accessed 24 September 2020)]</ref>
 
According to the [[United States Census Bureau]], the county has a total area of {{convert|516|sqmi}}, of which {{convert|506|sqmi}} is land and {{convert|11|sqmi}} (2.1%) is water.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.census.gov/geo/maps-data/data/docs/gazetteer/counties_list_28.txt|publisher=US Census Bureau|access-date=November 6 November, 2014|date=22 August 22, 2012|title=2010 Census Gazetteer Files|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130928074019/http://www.census.gov/geo/maps-data/data/docs/gazetteer/counties_list_28.txt|archive-date=28 September 28, 2013}}</ref>
