How to Use This Forest Hill, Texas Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Forest Hill, 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 Forest Hill.
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.

It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. Forest Hill is an incorporated locality. ZIP codes: 76119, 77023, 75783.Forest Hill anchors itself firmly upon the high, sun-drenched plains of North Texas, where the horizon stretches wide and the sky maintains a vast, unyielding clarity. It lies 15.0 miles west of Paris, TX (from Paris, TX: bearing 268°T), and is situated 21.4 miles east-northeast of Bonham. The Middle Fork Bergher Creek carves a quiet, meandering path through the terrain, its banks offering a subtle contrast to the surrounding expanse of dry, hardy grasses and patches of scrub oak. During the golden hour, the light hits the landscape with a peculiar, honeyed thickness, casting long shadows that emphasize the subtle shifts in elevation across the open ground. While the jagged silhouette of Popes Point remains a distant, faint suggestion on the far horizon, the immediate environment is defined by the steady, terrestrial rhythm of the interior prairie.
Forest Hill emerged from the steady expansion of the regional rail and road networks, evolving from a modest settlement into a residential enclave that maintains its own distinct, industrious character. The local economy persists through a blend of small-scale commerce and service-oriented enterprise, reflecting the pragmatic spirit of those who have long made their lives in this inland corridor. Residents often look toward the nearby Caddo National Grassland-Bois D'arc for a sense of quietude, finding the expansive, managed wildlands a necessary reprieve from the hum of daily traffic. Even as the pace of life quickens in the surrounding region, Forest Hill preserves a sense of autonomy, grounded by the steady flow of the Middle Fork Bergher Creek and the enduring, straightforward nature of its people.

About This Forest Hill Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Forest Hill, Texas. Coordinates: 32.661936, -97.266235. 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 Forest Hill includes the ZIP code (76119, 77023, 75783), telephone area code (903, 817), county seat of Lamar County (Paris), and school district assignment (Fort Worth 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.
