How to Use This Flatonia, Texas Map

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

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 Flatonia, Texas

Flatonia is a locality in Fayette County, Texas, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,308. The population density is 305.3 people per km². Flatonia is located at 29.6877°N, 97.1086°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. Flatonia is an incorporated locality. ZIP code: 78941.

Flatonia defines itself by the slow, deliberate pulse of the Fayette County plains, where the horizon stretches wide and the sky claims a vast, heavy presence over the earth. It lies 31.7 miles south-southeast of Bastrop, TX (from Bastrop, TX: bearing 157°T), and is situated 19.7 miles west of Weimar. Big Fivemile Creek carves a quiet, meandering path through the landscape, its banks shaded by sturdy hardwoods that offer a reprieve from the unfiltered intensity of the afternoon sun. To the west, the modest rise of Obar Hill breaks the level monotony of the fields, standing as a solitary landmark against the shifting light of dusk. The air here holds the dry, sweet scent of cured hay and sun-warmed soil, a reminder that the land remains the primary architect of the daily cycle.

Flatonia reflects a complex heritage layered by the arrival of immigrants who brought distinct traditions to these inland prairies, creating a culture that values both industry and the preservation of long-held roots. The local economy persists as a blend of agricultural persistence and the logistical necessities of a crossroads, with the iron veins of the railroad serving as a constant reminder of the migration and commerce that shaped the region’s early development. Residents often travel eight miles to find the recreational reprieve of Moulton City Park, though the true character of the locality is found in the way Flatonia maintains its own rhythm, indifferent to the hurried pace of the distant urban centers. The architecture of the main streets reveals a preference for utility and endurance, where brick storefronts and weathered porches stand as quiet witnesses to generations who have measured their lives by the changing seasons of the harvest.

About This Flatonia Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Flatonia, Texas. Coordinates: 29.687732, -97.108597. 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 Flatonia includes the ZIP code (78941), telephone area code (830), county seat of Fayette County (La Grange), and school district assignment (Flatonia 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.
