Explore Graford, 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 Graford, 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 Graford.
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.

Graford remains a quiet sentinel of the North Texas plains, where the horizon stretches wide and the sky holds a perpetual, dusty brilliance. It lies 11.8 miles northwest of Mineral Wells, TX (from Mineral Wells, TX: bearing 319°T), and is situated 28.9 miles west-northwest of Weatherford. Sunlight here has a way of bleaching the color from the dry grasses, leaving the earth a pale, sun-scorched tan that shifts into deeper ochre as the shadows lengthen across the open expanse. To the west, the distant silhouettes of the Palo Pinto Mountains break the flatness of the skyline, providing a jagged, blue-tinted frame to a landscape defined by scrub oak and the slow, rhythmic crawl of the seasons. Nearby, the quiet passage of Pecan Branch marks the land, its banks providing a sliver of shade and moisture that contrasts sharply with the arid, sun-baked soil of the surrounding prairie.
Graford traces its character to the rugged persistence of those who first settled this inland territory, finding a life in the quiet industry of ranching and the slow turning of the soil. The pulse of daily existence is measured not by clocks, but by the shifting heat and the needs of the livestock that graze the fields of the surrounding acreage. Residents often look toward the nearby expanse of Possum Kingdom Lake when the summer air turns heavy, or spend quiet afternoons sifting through the layers of time at Mineral Wells Fossil Park, where the earth reveals the ancient remnants of a much older world. Life in Graford follows the steady, unadorned pace of the plains, a place where the deep silence of Live Oak Canyon serves as a reminder of the vast, unchanging nature of the ground beneath one's feet.

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.
