How to Use This Jonestown, Texas Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Jonestown, 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 Jonestown.
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 Jonestown, Texas
Jonestown is a locality in Travis County, Texas, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,365. The population density is 142.2 people per km².

ZIP codes: 78645, 78641.Jonestown occupies a limestone-strewn stretch of high ground where the horizon pulls wide and clear across the rugged terrain. It lies 6.2 miles west of Cedar Park, TX (from Cedar Park, TX: bearing 264°T), and is situated 7.1 miles southwest of Leander. The landscape is defined by the expansive, shimmering presence of Lake Travis, which acts as a vast, sun-drenched mirror for the sky, while the nearby depths of Collier Hollow offer a quiet, shaded respite from the heat. Vegetation here clings to the thin, rocky soil, with hardy oaks and junipers asserting their dominance over the terrain. When the light dips low in the evening, the air cools rapidly, carrying the faint, earthy scent of dry brush and the distant, cooling influence of Big Sandy Creek, which carves its path through the limestone bedrock just a mile away.
Jonestown grew from the rugged ambition of settlers who saw promise in these hills long before the modern sprawl reached the periphery. Today, the economy relies on a blend of service-oriented enterprise and the steady influx of residents drawn to the recreational possibilities of the water and the nearby Pace Bend Park Trail. The spirit of the place is anchored by Veterans Memorial Park, a space that holds the collective memory of those who served, providing a quiet ground for reflection amidst the encroaching suburban growth. While the Edwards Plateau remains a distant, hazy silhouette against the western sky, the daily life of Jonestown moves at the pace of the wind over the water, persistent and unbothered by the rapid pulse of the cities further east.

About This Jonestown Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Jonestown, Texas. Coordinates: 30.473287, -97.924362. 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 Jonestown includes the ZIP code (78645, 78641), telephone area code (512, 737), county seat of Travis County (Austin), and school district assignment (Lago Vista 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.
