Explore De Leon, 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 De Leon, 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 De Leon.
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.

De Leon emerges from the dry, sun-washed plains of north-central Texas where the horizon stretches wide and unencumbered by the distant shadow of the Edwards Plateau. It lies 20.9 miles west-southwest of Stephenville, TX (from Stephenville, TX: bearing 249°T), and is situated 6.1 miles west-southwest of Highland. The landscape surrounding De Leon is defined by the steady, quiet passage of the Leon River two miles away and the modest, reflective surface of Golden Lake, which sits three miles from the center of the grid. Here, the earth is composed of deep, workable soil that catches the afternoon light in shades of burnt sienna and pale ochre, cooling only when the sun dips low enough to cast long, spindly shadows across the scrub brush. A few miles further, the gentle depressions of Weed Valley offer a slight variation in the topography, providing a subtle relief to the otherwise flattened expanse of the regional terrain.
Agriculture serves as the marrow of De Leon, a place where the economy remains tethered to the cycles of the harvest and the persistent, industrious nature of those who work the dirt. The Proctor Recreation Area, located four miles from the center, stands as a quiet reminder of the local commitment to the land, offering a space for respite amidst the heat of the growing season. History here is kept not in grand monuments, but in the enduring wooden structures and the steady, predictable pace of daily life that has persisted for generations. Residents move with a deliberate, measured grace, reflecting a culture that values the weight of a handshake and the seasonal rhythm of the fields over the frantic demands of the modern world.

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.
