How to Use This Hilltop, Texas Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Hilltop, 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 Hilltop.

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.

About Hilltop, Texas

Hilltop is a locality in Bexar County, Texas, United States. It is a small community with a population of 356. The population density is 109.5 people per km². Hilltop is located at 28.6938°N, 99.1761°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP codes: 78223, 78624, 78017.

Hilltop reveals itself through the sun-bleached expanse of the Texas plains, where the horizon stretches flat and wide under a sky that seems to press closer to the earth as the afternoon wanes. It lies 9.7 miles southeast of San Antonio, TX (from San Antonio, TX: bearing 143°T), and is situated 9.0 miles north of Sandy Oaks. The land here holds a quiet, dusty resilience, defined by the dry passage of Rosillo Creek just a mile away and the cooling, expansive presence of Calaveras Lake only three miles to the south. During the golden hour, the light thickens to a deep amber, catching the stubble of the fields and turning the native grasses into a sea of muted bronze. Though the distant silhouettes of the Edwards Plateau are sometimes imagined in the haze of the far west, the local terrain remains defined by this singular, open flatness that requires a person to find beauty in the subtle shift of shadows across the soil.

Hilltop emerged from the pragmatic necessity of the inland trade routes, growing slowly as a nexus for the agricultural labor that has long sustained the regional economy. Life here maintains an unadorned, steady pace, punctuated by the seasonal demands of the harvest and the rhythmic maintenance of the land. Residents find respite in the simple, managed greenery of Brooks Park, a local space that offers a necessary contrast to the surrounding industrial and farming corridors. The character of Hilltop rests in this balance between the hard work of the fields and the quiet endurance of those who remain, a place where history is measured not in grand monuments, but in the persistent, daily labor of keeping a homestead viable against the relentless heat and the changing tides of the modern market.

About This Hilltop Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Hilltop, Texas. Coordinates: 28.693843, -99.176148. 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 Hilltop includes the ZIP code (78223, 78624, 78017), telephone area code (512, 737, 210, 726), county seat of Bexar County (San Antonio), and school district assignment (Dilley 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.
