Explore New Summerfield, 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 New Summerfield, 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 New Summerfield.
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.

New Summerfield emerges from the flat, pine-studded horizon of East Texas as a quiet collection of dwellings and open fields defined by the long, slow shadows of the afternoon. It lies 10.4 miles east of Jacksonville, TX (from Jacksonville, TX: bearing 84°T), and is situated 18.7 miles south-southeast of Whitehouse. The landscape here is characterized by a humid, verdant stillness, where the air holds the scent of damp earth and thick, encroaching woodland. Only a mile away, the quiet flow of Coon Creek traces a path through the timber, its banks serving as a natural boundary for the surrounding pastures. Five miles to the east, the broader expanse of Lake Striker offers a mirror to the sky, reflecting the vast, unbroken clouds that drift over the plains. Even when the heat presses down on the tall grass, the light retains a soft, golden quality, illuminating the quiet persistence of the vegetation that thrives in the heavy, iron-rich soil.
New Summerfield carries the weight of a regional history rooted deeply in the agricultural cycles and timber harvests that have long sustained the families of the interior. The economy remains tethered to the land, moving at a deliberate pace that favors the rhythm of the seasons over the frantic pulse of the city. While the horizon is largely level, the distant elevation of Tater Hill provides a faint, singular landmark that anchors the perspective of those who work the local fields. Residents often look toward the quiet reaches of Nichols Green Phase II & III for a sense of space, finding in its quietude a reflection of the town’s own understated character. It is a place that demands little, asking only for the steady, unobserved labor required to keep a life in motion across these expansive, inland stretches of Texas.

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.
