Explore Highland Park, 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 Highland Park, 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 Highland Park.
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.

Highland Park occupies a refined expanse of North Texas where the land rises in gentle, deliberate swells above the surrounding prairie. It lies 1.2 miles south-southeast of University Park, TX (from University Park, TX: bearing 157°T), and is situated 3.6 miles north-northeast of Dallas. Sunlight here catches the limestone dust in the air at dusk, turning the horizon into a soft, bruised purple that feels both ancient and orderly. The local landscape is defined by the winding course of Turtle Creek, which cuts a quiet path through the neighborhood, while the tranquil waters of Exall Lake offer a reflective stillness nearby. Residents often seek the shaded pathways of Hackberry Creek Park, a local sanctuary that keeps the memory of the native woodland alive amidst manicured lawns. On the distant horizon, the faint silhouette of Irish Ridge serves as a silent, geologic anchor for those who look far enough toward the west.
Highland Park traces its origins to the early twentieth century, emerging as a carefully planned vision of residential permanence and architectural continuity. The local economy thrives on a bedrock of professional services and private enterprise, reflecting the industrious spirit that built this region from the vast, open plains. Business activity remains anchored in the stability of the immediate vicinity, where professional offices and boutique commerce serve the daily needs of a focused population. The development of the area mirrored the growth of the broader regional economy, shifting from agricultural roots into a modern center of commerce and residential wealth. Even as industry evolves, the quiet rhythm of the workday remains tied to the enduring strength of the local financial and service sectors.
Highland Park maintains a distinct cultural identity defined by its commitment to academic excellence and the preservation of a private, leafy aesthetic. The neighborhood serves as a notable center for education, with its public school system long recognized for a rigor that shapes the character of its youth. Residents may walk or cycle along the White Rock Lake Trail, finding a steady cadence in the movement of people across the landscape. Notable individuals, such as the influential golfer Scottie Scheffler, have spent their formative years within these quiet streets, contributing to the quiet pride of the locality. Local events often center on the seasonal changes in the garden foliage, reflecting a collective appreciation for the subtle shifts in the Texan climate.

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.
