Explore Myrtle Springs, 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 Myrtle Springs, 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 Myrtle Springs.
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.

Myrtle Springs emerges from the East Texas landscape as a quiet intersection of open pasture and dense thickets of post oak. It lies 21.9 miles east-southeast of Terrell, TX (from Terrell, TX: bearing 113°T), and is situated 5.4 miles northwest of Canton. Rats Branch winds its way through the terrain, a modest, earth-toned artery that carries the seasonal runoff of the plains toward the broader drainage basins of the region. To the west, the horizon is flattened by the vast, open sky, though the faint, blue-tinted spine of Hooker Ridge looms twenty-four miles away, a distant reminder of the varied topography beyond the immediate horizon. The air here holds the scent of damp soil and sun-baked grass, particularly near the quiet edges of City Lake, where the water often mirrors the pale, expansive clouds that drift over the surrounding fields.
Myrtle Springs carries the weight of a long-settled rural history, rooted in the agrarian cycles that once defined the economic pulse of the region. While the days of bustling agricultural transit have faded into a more measured pace of life, the legacy of the land remains, evidenced by the scattered homesteads and the persistent, industrious character of the people who maintain the surrounding acreage. Four miles away, the quiet expanse of Cherry Creek Park serves as a preserve for the local flora, protecting the native hardwoods that once dominated this section of the state. Life in Myrtle Springs proceeds with a steady, unadorned rhythm, characterized by the hum of trucks on narrow roads and the patient observation of seasonal change across the fields.

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.
