How to Use This Broaddus, Texas Map

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

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.

Broaddus anchors itself amidst the dense, resinous shadows of the East Texas piney woods, where the landscape is defined by a slow, rhythmic transition from high-canopy timber to the riparian edges of the Angelina National Forest. It lies 27.2 miles east of Lufkin, TX (from Lufkin, TX: bearing 94°T), and is situated 18.3 miles east of Huntington. Caney Creek carves a winding, silt-heavy path through the understory, its dark waters serving as a persistent, quiet neighbor to the local topography. To the west, the expansive, light-catching surface of Sam Rayburn Reservoir dictates the moisture of the air and the temperament of the climate, creating a humid, heavy stillness during the long afternoons. In the distance, the low, weathered rise of Turkey Hill breaks the horizon, a subtle reminder of the geological persistence that keeps this inland territory grounded far from the chaotic reaches of the coast.

Broaddus maintains a quiet, deliberate pace, its character forged by the legacy of timber harvesting and the agrarian traditions that once animated these woods. The economy remains tethered to the natural resources of the surrounding Angelina National Forest, where the scent of pine needles and damp earth permeates the local industry and daily life. Residents move with a recognition of the land’s demands, acknowledging the history of a settlement that grew alongside the logging trails rather than the paved arteries of modern commerce. Whether observing the way the low sun filters through the loblolly pines or listening to the persistent flow of Caney Creek, one senses a place that prioritizes the endurance of the natural world over the fleeting noise of the outside.

About This Broaddus Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Broaddus, Texas. Coordinates: 31.306855, -94.269088. 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 Broaddus includes the ZIP code (75929, 75972), telephone area code (903), county seat of San Augustine County (San Augustine), and school district assignment (Broaddus 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.
