Explore Allison, 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 Allison, 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 Allison.
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.

Allison emerges from the flat, vast expanse of the Texas Panhandle as a quiet collection of structures anchored to the earth by the relentless, horizontal pull of the prairie horizon. It lies 48.5 miles east of Pampa, TX (from Pampa, TX: bearing 84°T), and is situated 33.8 miles northwest of Sayre. The landscape surrounding Allison is defined by a rigorous, sun-bleached simplicity, where the wind shapes the tall grasses and the light at dusk turns the dry soil into a bruised, copper-toned expanse. Two miles away, the modest channel of Hackberry Creek traces a winding path through the terrain, cutting slightly into the earth near the broader depression of Mulberry Draw. The air here holds a thin, sharp clarity that makes distant features like the rise of Rattlesnake Hill thirteen miles away appear deceptively close, while the expansive sky dictates the mood of every afternoon.
History in Allison remains tethered to the slow, deliberate work of agriculture and the resilient spirit of those who cultivate a living from the stubborn, semi-arid plains. The local economy persists as a quiet negotiation with the elements, driven by cattle ranching and the cultivation of hardy crops that can withstand the sweeping, unpredictable climate. Beyond the immediate fields, the proximity to the Black Kettle National Grassland—a sanctuary of preserved wilderness just seven miles away—offers a stark, natural contrast to the grid of fenced pastures. Whether observing the stillness of the Soil Conservation Service Site 45 Reservoir five miles to the north or watching the long, golden shadows lengthen across the dust, the experience of Allison is one of measured time, where the silence is not an absence of sound, but a heavy, grounding presence.

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.
