Explore Nevada, 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 Nevada, 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 Nevada.
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.

Nevada occupies a stretch of North Texas where the blackland prairie yields to a landscape of open fields and quiet, expansive horizons. It lies 5.2 miles north-northwest of Royse City, TX (from Royse City, TX: bearing 333°T), and is situated 9.7 miles east of Wylie. The earth here holds a heavy, dark quality, absorbing the intense heat of the afternoon until the sun dips low and casts long, amber shadows across the pasture. To the west, the subtle rise of Graham Point marks the sky, while the local topography remains defined by the slow, deliberate meander of Bear Creek as it cuts through the brush. Nearby, the stillness of Moores Lake reflects the changing colors of the seasons, providing a quiet basin for the local wildlife that congregates in the shade of the thickets.
Nevada emerged from the agricultural ambitions of early settlers, growing slowly as a hub for those who worked the surrounding soil. The economy remains rooted in this tradition of land stewardship, though the modern pace is marked by the proximity of the Lavon Recreation Area, where the land is managed for both conservation and public use. Life here maintains a steady, measured cadence, far removed from the clamor of dense urban centers, though the distant influence of the region is felt in the steady traffic along the rural roads. Residents often venture toward the Trinity Trail to engage with the natural expanse, finding a sense of continuity in a landscape that has long been shaped by the interplay of farming, local industry, and the quiet persistence of the prairie.

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.
