Explore Apple Springs, 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 Apple Springs, 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 Apple Springs.
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.

Apple Springs occupies a quiet expanse of East Texas, where the terrain shifts from dense, towering timber to the subtle, undulating shadows of the Piney Woods. It lies 16.1 miles west-southwest of Lufkin, TX (from Lufkin, TX: bearing 241°T), and is situated 13.0 miles west-southwest of Hudson. This landscape is defined by the pervasive presence of the Davy Crockett National Forest, which envelops the surroundings in a deep, verdant stillness that persists through the changing seasons. The moisture of the region gathers in the low-lying reaches of Hackberry Creek, a slender vein of water that carves through the earth just a mile away, feeding the soil and cooling the air during the long, humid afternoons. To the north, the distant horizon is occasionally punctuated by the rise of Sugar Mounds, serving as a silent, terrestrial anchor for a land that feels both ancient and enduring.
Apple Springs maintains a character forged by the steady, deliberate pace of agricultural life and the persistent influence of the timber industry that has long defined the local economy. The rhythms of the day are governed by the sun as it tracks across fields and the dense canopy of the Davy Crockett National Forest, which offers a vast, protected backdrop to the daily commerce of the region. Residents often find their way toward the quiet shores of Brushy Lake, a reflective expanse of water nine miles distant that provides a sanctuary from the demands of work and the heat of the summer sun. The legacy of Apple Springs is found not in grand monuments, but in the enduring resilience of those who cultivate this inland earth, finding a particular, quiet beauty in the way the light catches the pine needles at dusk, turning the forest floor into a mosaic of copper and deep amber.

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.
