Explore Blue Mound, 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 Blue Mound, 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 Blue Mound.
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.

Blue Mound rises from the North Texas prairie as a modest elevation, a subtle swell of earth that commands a view of the surrounding plains. It lies 1.5 miles east of Saginaw, TX (from Saginaw, TX: bearing 100°T), and is situated 9.1 miles north of Fort Worth. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Little Fossil Creek, which carves a narrow, verdant path through the terrain, its banks offering a quiet sanctuary for local wildlife. At the crest of the topography, Blue Mound Park serves as a central gathering space, where the wind pushes through the grasses with a persistent, dry hum. On clear evenings, the distant silhouette of the Devils Backbone can sometimes be discerned against the bruised purple of the horizon, grounding the wide, open sky to the jagged geology of the region.
Blue Mound traces its identity to the early homesteaders who recognized the utility of this high ground, which long stood as a natural lookout above the surrounding scrubland. While Loughridge Lake sits a few miles away, the local economy has historically favored the steady, land-locked rhythms of trade and residential development rather than the whims of water-bound industry. The pace of life here is marked by the hum of traffic and the persistent growth of the suburban sprawl that encroaches from the neighboring metropolitan reach. Residents seeking a moment of respite often travel to the Capp Smith Park Trail, following the path as it traces the contours of the land, a testament to the way the people of Blue Mound have learned to live within the quiet, sun-bleached boundaries of their own geography.

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.
