How to Use This Cross Roads, Texas Map

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

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.

Cross Roads asserts its presence upon a landscape defined by the persistent, rhythmic flow of Bacon Creek, which carves a shallow, verdant artery through the surrounding prairie. It lies 6.2 miles southeast of Kilgore, TX (from Kilgore, TX: bearing 128°T), and is situated 8.4 miles west-southwest of Lake Cherokee. The horizon is punctuated by the steady, rising profile of Holland Mountain, a silent sentinel that watches over the expansive fields as they catch the bruised, amber light of a fading sun. Only four miles away, the surface of Martin Lake holds the sky in a mirror of still, dark water, providing a cool respite against the heat that often settles heavily upon the open plains. The air here carries the scent of sun-warmed earth and dry grass, a sensory reminder of the vast, inland distance that separates these plains from any distant, salt-tinged shore.

Cross Roads remains a place where the local economy maintains a deliberate pace, anchored by the shifting demands of modern infrastructure and the quiet endurance of land-based commerce. The rhythm of daily life is shaped by the nearby presence of Meadowbrook Park, where the untamed patches of native vegetation offer a glimpse into the region’s original, uncultivated character. Families and laborers move through the day with a focused, understated purpose, reflecting the pragmatism of a locality built on the intersection of agrarian roots and steady, pragmatic expansion. There is a specific, solitary beauty in the way the shadows lengthen across the roads at dusk, revealing a landscape that values its own quiet substance over the clamor of more crowded centers.

About This Cross Roads Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Cross Roads, Texas. Coordinates: 33.220449, -96.995808. 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 Cross Roads includes the ZIP code (77864, 75925, 75662), telephone area code (903, 817), county seat of Rusk County (Henderson), and school district assignment (Denton 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.
