How to Use This Centerville, Texas Map

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

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.

Centerville occupies a quiet expanse of deep East Texas, where the persistent current of the South Fork Cedar Creek carves a slow, meandering path through the earth. It lies 21.5 miles west-southwest of Lufkin, TX (from Lufkin, TX: bearing 240°T), and is situated 18.5 miles west-southwest of Hudson. The air here holds a heavy, resinous warmth, filtered by the dense, towering pines that define the Davy Crockett National Forest surrounding the perimeter. To the west, the horizon is anchored by the distant, hazy silhouette of Chinquapin Ridge, which breaks the otherwise level horizon of the timberlands. When the sun begins to retreat, the light catches the needles of the pines, turning the forest floor into a mosaic of copper and shadow, while the surface of Ritter Lake, seven miles away, mirrors the darkening sky with a glassy, undisturbed stillness.

Centerville serves as a deliberate anchor for the surrounding agricultural lands, where the rhythms of the day are governed by the seasonal cycles of timber harvest and cattle ranching. The legacy of the region remains etched into the local identity, reflecting a history of settlement that prioritized resilience and a measured pace of life over rapid expansion. Economic activity continues to pulse through the local timber industry and the steady, quiet commerce that supports those living under the canopy of the Davy Crockett National Forest. Life in Centerville proceeds with a grounded simplicity, defined by the wood smoke that occasionally drifts through the streets and the collective understanding that the land here provides both a living and a profound sense of permanence.

About This Centerville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Centerville, Texas. Coordinates: 31.258335, -95.979394. 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 Centerville includes the ZIP code (75043, 75845, 75833), telephone area code (903), county seat of Trinity County (Groveton), and school district assignment (Centerville 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.
