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 holds a quiet position upon the North Texas landscape where the earth settles into a gentle, open expanse. It lies 2.1 miles north of Highland Village, TX (from Highland Village, TX: bearing 6°T), and is situated 8.2 miles southeast of Denton. The Carter Branch winds through the terrain, carving a path that defines the local drainage and offers a natural corridor for the surrounding flora. To the east, the expansive waters of Lake Lewisville provide a calm horizon, reflecting the wide, persistent sky that characterizes this inland stretch of the country. Visitors often gravitate toward the Lewisville Recreation Area, where the land meets the water in a convergence of prairie and shoreline. On clear days, one might catch a faint suggestion of The Backbone rising far off in the distance, a reminder of the rugged geological shifts that exist well beyond these plains.
Hickory Creek traces its origins to the steady expansion of settlers who recognized the agricultural potential of the fertile soil near the waterways. The local economy has shifted over the decades from agrarian roots to a contemporary environment shaped by its proximity to the broader Dallas-Fort Worth corridor. Residents often commute to participate in the regional industries of technology, logistics, and professional services that drive the northern sector of the state. Commerce in Hickory Creek remains tethered to the steady growth of residential developments, which provide a balanced atmosphere for families and professionals alike. The rhythm of daily life is punctuated by the transition of seasons, as the heat of summer gives way to the amber light of autumn across the fields.
Hickory Creek maintains a character defined by its blend of suburban comfort and a lingering sense of wide-open space. The community gathers throughout the year at various local venues and public spaces, fostering a neighborly spirit that reflects the broader Texan ethos of independence and hospitality. Enthusiasts of the outdoors frequently traverse the Pilot Knoll Trail, a path that offers a focused look at the native grasses and wooded patches that define the local ecosystem. While the region is not defined by the presence of singular, globally recognized figures, the spirit of the area is built upon the collective contributions of those who have made their lives here. The local atmosphere remains grounded, favoring a pace that allows for the observation of the shifting light over the fields and the quiet movement of the water.

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.
