How to Use This Live Oak, Texas Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Live Oak, 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 Live Oak.
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 Live Oak, Texas
Live Oak is a locality in Concho County, Texas, United States. It has a population of 15,781. The population density is 1280.9 people per km². Live Oak is located at 29.5554°N, 98.3400°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. Live Oak is an incorporated locality. ZIP codes: 76837, 78233.Live Oak sits upon a landscape where the flat, sun-baked plains of the interior slowly gather themselves into the subtle, limestone-dusted topography that eventually rises toward the distant Edwards Plateau. It lies 37.4 miles southeast of San Angelo, TX (from San Angelo, TX: bearing 127°T), and is situated 35.2 miles west of Brady. The persistent presence of Live Oak Creek defines the local hydrology, cutting a narrow, winding path through the soil that serves as a quiet artery for the surrounding scrub and hardwood brush. During the long, golden hours of late afternoon, the light here takes on a heavy, amber quality, casting long shadows across the dry grasses and illuminating the sparse, hardy vegetation that clings to the earth. Ten miles to the north, the quiet surface of Soil Conservation Service Site 20 Reservoir holds the sky in a still, reflective mirror, providing a singular point of water in an otherwise parched and expansive terrain.
Live Oak emerged from the steady expansion of the regional grid, transitioning from its agrarian roots into a modern suburban landscape integrated into the broader economic currents of the state. The economy here functions as a quiet gear in a larger machine, supported by a mix of commercial enterprise and service sectors that keep the pace of life measured and predictable. Residents move through their days under a vast, open expanse of sky, where the climate remains defined by intense heat and the occasional, violent relief of a sudden thunderstorm. While the bustle of larger hubs exerts a gravitational pull, Live Oak maintains a distinct identity, marked by the persistent, dry rustle of wind through the brush and the enduring, stoic character of a place that remains firmly rooted in the interior geography of the continent.

About This Live Oak Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Live Oak, Texas. Coordinates: 29.555395, -98.340042. 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 Live Oak includes the ZIP code (76837, 78233), telephone area code (325, 210, 726), county seat of Concho County (Paint Rock), and school district assignment (Judson 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.
