How to Use This Danbury, Texas Map

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

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.

Danbury sits upon a flat, expansive stretch of prairie where the horizon line remains unbroken by anything taller than a telephone pole or a cluster of scrubby mesquite. It lies 6.6 miles northeast of Angleton, TX (from Angleton, TX: bearing 52°T), and is situated 19.5 miles north of Brazosport. The light here has a heavy, amber quality in the late afternoon, casting long shadows across the grasses that shift in the steady, dry wind. To the west, the subtle depression of Eagle Gully creates a slight variation in the otherwise level ground, while the persistent, quiet flow of Flores Bayou marks the landscape just a mile away. Farther out, the earth rises in the modest, rounded prominence of Hoskins Mound, a silent landmark that anchors the view against the vastness of the sky.

Danbury evolved from the quiet necessity of agricultural life, maintaining a pace that moves in sync with the seasonal cycles of the fields rather than the frantic tempo of the nearby industrial corridors. Local work remains tied to the land and the surrounding regional economy, which relies on the stability of the plains and the proximity of resources like Monsanto Reservoir. The presence of Us-Tx-142-8 provides a small, protected space of native growth amidst the cultivated acreage, offering a sanctuary for the local fauna that move through the brush at dusk. Life in Danbury is defined by this grounded stillness, a place where the work is plain, the neighbors are known by sight, and the evening air holds the scent of cooling soil and distant cut hay.

About This Danbury Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Danbury, Texas. Coordinates: 29.228297, -95.344936. 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 Danbury includes the ZIP code (77534), telephone area code (281), county seat of Brazoria County (Angleton), and school district assignment (Danbury 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.
