Explore Hickory Creek, 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 Hickory Creek, 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 Hickory Creek.
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.

Hickory Creek defines its perimeter through the persistent, low-slung meander of the waterway that shares its name, carving a path through the dense, dark clay of the North Texas soil. It lies 14.7 miles south of Bonham, TX (from Bonham, TX: bearing 175°T), and is situated 5.3 miles east of Leonard. The landscape here unfolds in broad, intentional strokes of grassland and thin, persistent woodland, where the light at dusk settles in heavy, golden layers against the horizon. To the far west, the distant, hazy silhouette of Graham Point anchors the sky, providing a jagged contrast to the flat, expansive plains that stretch toward the horizon. Only six miles away, the quiet surface of the Wolfe City Reservoirs gathers the sky into its stillness, while the nearby reach of the Clymer Meadow Preserve protects a rare, remnant patch of the original prairie grass that once dominated this entire inland expanse.
Hickory Creek emerged from the steady, rhythmic expansion of regional agriculture, evolving from a scatter of homesteads into a residential corridor that mirrors the quiet, industrious pulse of the surrounding plains. The local economy maintains a tether to the modern pace of the nearby metropolitan sprawl while preserving a distinct, grounded independence rooted in its inland geography. Life in Hickory Creek moves with the patient gravity of the seasons, where the heat of summer turns the tall grasses to a brittle, bleached straw and the winter air carries a sharp, metallic clarity. Residents recognize the value of this slow, deliberate endurance, finding a singular beauty in the way the land remains unburdened by the frantic clamor of the distant coasts, favoring instead the steady, predictable cycle of the sun rising over the plains and setting behind the faint, blue shadows of the far-off ridges.

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.
