The northern terminus of U.S. Route 49 is in Piggott; the highway runs southwest 32 miles (51 km) to Paragould, and 516 miles (830 km) to Gulfport, Mississippi.

The topography of Piggott is mostly flat in the eastern half of the city with the more developed western half lying along Crowley’s Ridge, creating a sensation of coming down from a small mount to the flatland below. This ridge is a naturally occurring phenomenon created over millennia by wind-blown periglacial loess and possibly by seismic activity in the region.
