Explore Farmers Branch, 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 Farmers Branch, 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 Farmers Branch.
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.

Farmers Branch anchors the expansive plains of North Texas, where the horizon stretches wide and the sky holds a vast, pale clarity. It lies 1.9 miles south of Carrollton, TX (from Carrollton, TX: bearing 190°T), and is situated 8.4 miles north-northeast of Irving. Rawhide Creek carves a quiet path through the landscape, its banks providing a subtle relief to the flat, open terrain that defines the region. Residents often find solace in the greenery of Squire, an oasis that maintains a stillness amidst the surrounding development. While the distant Chalk Hill rises thirteen miles away to break the monotony of the earth, the immediate surroundings remain defined by the gentle, sun-baked transition of prairie land. Even in the heat of midday, the air carries a dry, persistent warmth that reminds one of the deep inland distance from any tide.
Farmers Branch emerged from the steady labor of early settlers who recognized the promise in the fertile black soil. Over the decades, the local economy shifted from those agrarian roots into a robust center for corporate headquarters and professional logistics. Modern office towers now rise where wagons once traversed, reflecting the industrious spirit that continues to propel the region forward. This transition from fields to a hub of commerce has drawn people from across the globe, creating a diverse workforce that sustains a steady, productive rhythm. The interplay between the legacy of the land and the ambition of new enterprise keeps the character of Farmers Branch grounded yet forward-looking.
Cultural life in Farmers Branch finds expression in the shared moments of a community that values both progress and tradition. The Spring Trail Park Trail offers a quiet artery for movement, allowing locals to traverse the landscape at a pace slower than the rush of the nearby highways. Throughout the year, the town gathers for celebrations that highlight a collective identity, often centered on the open spaces that remain preserved for public enjoyment. While many people pass through the region, the enduring character is shaped by those who appreciate the subtle shifts in light over the plains at dusk. Those seeking a broader perspective might travel ten miles to reach the waters of Grapevine Lake, yet the true spirit of the place remains firmly planted in the local soil.

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.
