Explore Bula, 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 Bula, 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 Bula.
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.

Bula occupies a quiet expanse of the Llano Estacado, where the horizon stretches wide and unencumbered under a sky that shifts from pale azure to a deep, bruised violet as the sun retreats. It lies 26.9 miles north-northwest of Levelland, TX (from Levelland, TX: bearing 326°T), and is situated 18.0 miles west of Littlefield. The landscape surrounding Bula is defined by the flat, high-plains prairie, where the earth holds the heat of the day long after the shadows have lengthened across the dry grasses. To the northwest, the land dips toward the subtle depression of Goat Draw, while the gentle rise of Ramsey Hill marks the distant edge of the plains. Travelers passing through might notice the light catching the dust motes in the air, a golden suspension that makes the vast, open fields seem to breathe with a slow, rhythmic pulse.
Agriculture serves as the backbone of the region, with the nearby Muleshoe National Wildlife Refuge acting as a sanctuary for migratory birds that seek shelter in the open spaces that have remained largely unchanged by the centuries. The economy here is tethered to the cycles of the harvest and the resilience of the soil, a life governed by the arrival of rains and the steady endurance of those who work the land. While life moves at the pace of the wind across the plains, the proximity of Lower Pauls Lake offers a rare gathering point where the stillness of the water mirrors the vastness of the heavens. Bula remains a place where the history of the plains is written in the furrows of the fields and the quiet, persistent labor of its inhabitants, grounded firmly in the geography of the high, inland interior.

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.
