Explore Lawn, 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 Lawn, 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 Lawn.
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.

Lawn occupies a quiet stretch of land where the horizon pulls wide and flat against an expansive, sun-bleached sky. It lies 21.7 miles south of Abilene, TX (from Abilene, TX: bearing 183°T), and is situated 14.5 miles south-southwest of Potosi.
Red Bank Creek carves a shallow, rhythmic path through the local topography, its seasonal pulse dictating the temperament of the surrounding soil. While the distant silhouette of the Edwards Plateau remains a mere suggestion on the far-off western edge of the world, the immediate terrain is defined by the steady, unyielding patience of the plains. Only three miles away, the Soil Conservation Service Site 19 Reservoir offers a mirror to the amber light of late afternoon, catching the drifting shadows of clouds that move with a deliberate, slow-motion grace across the prairie. The air here holds a dry, clean weight, carrying the scent of parched earth and the faint, metallic tang of the wind as it brushes over the scrub and open fields.
History in Lawn resides in the persistent labor of those who turned this ground into a life, balancing the demands of the land with the quiet endurance of a rural economy rooted in agriculture. Ten miles to the north, the sprawling grounds of Abilene State Park provide a rare gathering of shade and stillness, a stark contrast to the industrious, sun-drenched rhythm of the local roads. Beyond the influence of Long Hollow, which lies eleven miles out, the character of Lawn is forged in the transition between the everyday maintenance of fences and the seasonal turn of the harvest. Life here proceeds with a gravity that honors the scarcity of water and the abundance of space, where the stillness of the evening is not a void, but a profound presence that settles over the porches and the quiet streets as the heat of the day finally relents.

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.
