How to Use This Alice, Texas Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Alice, 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 Alice.

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.

Alice presents a wide, sun-drenched horizon where the flat plains stretch toward an expansive sky that changes color with the slow transition of the day. It lies 20.9 miles northwest of Kingsville, TX (from Kingsville, TX: bearing 321°T), and is situated 7.3 miles north of Ben Bolt. The land around Alice remains defined by the steady, winding path of San Diego Creek, which flows with a quiet purpose through the brush country. Farther out, the landscape rises toward the distant Carmel Hills, grounding the view in a sense of ancient, geological permanence. Tranquitas Lake rests fifteen miles away, offering a still reflection of the clouds in an otherwise arid expanse. Heidt Park provides a local space for quiet reflection, where the native flora thrives in the heat and the light casts sharp, clear shadows across the earth.

Alice emerged from the dust and determination of the ranching frontier, growing steadily as the rhythm of the oil patch became the pulse of the local economy. The legacy of discovery informs the modern industrial character of the region, where the extraction of resources and the movement of goods define the daily labor of its people. Industry here is a matter of practical necessity, requiring a resilience that matches the harsh, beautiful intensity of the sun. The soil supports a long tradition of agriculture, turning the plains into a mosaic of working fields that sustain the families who have stayed for generations. Alice serves as a vital hub for these activities, balancing the weight of its history with the demands of a changing, modern energy landscape.

Cultural life in Alice resonates with the deep, bilingual heritage of the region, creating a distinctive social atmosphere that feels both grounded and deeply communal. Residents often gather at local landmarks, where the conversation carries the cadence of a long-shared history and a mutual respect for the land. Musicians like the legendary Freddy Fender found their roots in this specific environment, carrying the soul of the plains into the wider world through their art. Public events draw neighbors together to celebrate the traditions that define their identity, often held within the welcoming grounds of Heidt Park. Alice maintains a pace that favors deliberate action and steady progress, reflecting a character forged by the interplay of diverse influences and the enduring spirit of the Texan brush.

About This Alice Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Alice, Texas. Coordinates: 27.752249, -98.069725. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Alice includes the ZIP code (78332, 78333), telephone area code (830), county seat of Jim Wells County (Alice), and school district assignment (Alice Independent School District).

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.
