Explore Alanreed, Texas, 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 Alanreed, Texas. 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 Texas 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 Alanreed.
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.

Alanreed stretches across the high, wind-swept plains of the Texas Panhandle, where the horizon pulls the sky taut over a landscape of sun-bleached grasses and quiet, expansive earth. It lies 25.7 miles south-southeast of Pampa, TX (from Pampa, TX: bearing 150°T), and is situated 48.8 miles southeast of Borger. The terrain here holds a persistent stillness, broken only by the intermittent movement of shadows cast by passing clouds that drift toward the distant silhouette of Mount Ararat. Two miles to the north, the modest channel of Whitefish Creek carves a shallow path through the soil, while the broader, more rugged relief of Jack Canyon lies six miles away to provide a subtle fracture in the otherwise level topography. The air carries a dry, sharp clarity that defines the seasons, magnifying the amber light of dusk until the fields appear to glow with a quiet, lingering heat.
Alanreed remains a lingering echo of the great westward migrations, having once served as a vital stop for those traveling the path of old Route 66. While the bustling commerce of the mid-twentieth century has receded into the quietude of a rural present, the local economy continues to draw its resilience from the patterns of agriculture and ranching that have long defined the region. Residents find respite in the natural expanse of the McClellan Creek National Grassland, which sits seven miles away, offering access to the McClellan Creek Trail for those who seek the solitude of the open prairie. Even as time shifts the character of the surrounding plains, the legacy of Alanreed endures in the simple, stoic architecture and the persistent rhythm of a life governed by the vast, unyielding sky and the proximity of Lake McClellan.

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.
