How to Use This Fannett, Texas Map

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

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.

About Fannett, Texas

Fannett is a locality in Jefferson County, Texas, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,363. The population density is 93.1 people per km². Fannett is located at 29.9261°N, 94.2507°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP code: 77705.

Fannett manifests as a vast, low-slung expanse of prairie where the horizon remains wide and unencumbered, defined by the steady, rhythmic persistence of the wind moving through tall grasses. It lies 14.2 miles southwest of Beaumont, TX (from Beaumont, TX: bearing 219°T), and is situated 19.4 miles west of Port Arthur. The earth here is heavy and dark, a flat alluvial plain that stretches toward the distant, hazy silhouette of Big Hill, which breaks the monotony of the landscape only when the light catches its slope just right. Gallier Canal cuts a precise, utilitarian line through the fields, its waters moving with a deliberate, sluggish intent that mirrors the patient temperament of the land. Nearby, the topography dips into the subtle depressions of Kidd Gully, while the protected acreage of Taylor Bayou Preserve II offers a sanctuary where the wilder, scrub-brush character of the region remains undisturbed by the encroaching reach of modern development.

Fannett carries the quiet, enduring legacy of settlers who recognized the potential of this fertile soil, transforming the open plains into a landscape of agriculture and industrious enterprise. The pace of life here is dictated by the seasons of the harvest and the hum of machinery, a testament to an economy deeply rooted in the productivity of the land. While residents might occasionally travel nine miles to walk the Tyrell Park Trail or drive eleven miles to view the still surface of Shallow Prong Lake, the focus of the locality remains firmly on its own sturdy, hardworking identity. The character of the people is forged in this space, marked by a plain-spoken resilience that treats the vast, open sky not as a void, but as a constant, familiar companion to the daily labor of sustaining a life in such an exposed, honest geography.

About This Fannett Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Fannett, Texas. Coordinates: 29.92605, -94.250741. 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 Fannett includes the ZIP code (77705), telephone area code (281), county seat of Jefferson County (Beaumont), and school district assignment (Hamshire-Fannett 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.
