Explore Cedar Hill, New Mexico, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Cedar Hill, New Mexico. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of New Mexico or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Cedar Hill.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Cedar Hill rises from the high desert floor where the Pecos River carves a persistent, life-giving ribbon through the arid earth. It lies 24.3 miles south of Las Vegas, NM (from Las Vegas, NM: bearing 186°T), and is situated 48.6 miles southeast of Santa Fe. This landscape is defined by the deep, silent geometry of Cañon de la Mina, a basin that holds the heat of the day and exhales a cool, cedar-scented clarity once the sun dips low. To the distant horizon, the Sangre de Cristo Mountains stand as jagged, violet silhouettes against a sky so vast it seems to press the very breath from the lungs. The local geography is further marked by the quiet presence of Empedrado Tank, a small, reflective body of water that mirrors the shifting ochre and burnt-sienna hues of the surrounding plains.
Cedar Hill maintains a character forged by the overlapping influences of generations who have worked this rugged soil, from those who first navigated the basin to the settlers who understood the necessity of the Santa Fe National Forest for timber and shelter. The economy remains tethered to the land, moving in a slow, deliberate cadence dictated by the seasonal requirements of agriculture and the maintenance of the livestock that graze the brush-strewn flats. Life here is measured not by the clock, but by the subtle transition of light across the landscape and the steady, reliable pull of the riverbed. There is a distinct, unadorned beauty in the way the dust settles on the sagebrush and the way the inhabitants acknowledge the immense, open space that surrounds them, a quiet testament to a life lived in direct contact with the elements.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
