How to Use This Newton, Texas Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Newton, 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 Newton.

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.

Newton defines the edges of the deep piney woods, where the land settles into a humid, verdant stillness broken only by the slow, persistent passage of Caney Creek. It lies 48.1 miles north-northeast of Lumberton, TX (from Lumberton, TX: bearing 33°T), and is situated 15.0 miles east-southeast of Jasper. Sunlight filters through the dense canopy of loblolly and shortleaf pines, casting long, bruised shadows across the damp, sandy soil that characterizes this inland expanse. Six miles to the west, the earth drops away into the shadowed depression of Lewis Gully, while the horizon to the northwest is anchored by the distant silhouette of Bald Hill. Here, the air carries a heavy, resinous scent of sap and cooling earth, and the quietude is so profound that the rustle of wind through the needles sounds like a distant, rushing tide.

Newton anchors its identity in the remnants of a timber-driven past, where the rhythm of the local economy still pulses in time with the sawmills and the quiet commerce of the county seat. The town maintains a grounded, unpretentious character, centered around Hughes Park, where the grass stays emerald even as the summer heat pushes the mercury toward the top of the glass. Beyond the immediate grid, the landscape opens into managed tracts of forest and quiet clearings that stretch toward the distant, shimmering expanse of Brushy Lake. Life proceeds with a deliberate, measured pace, influenced by the slow turn of the seasons and the enduring resilience of those who have carved a existence from these thickets. It is a place where the history of the frontier remains layered in the very mud of the creek beds, waiting in the stillness for the next shift in the light.

About This Newton Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Newton, Texas. Coordinates: 30.848534, -93.757401. 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 Newton includes the ZIP code (75966), telephone area code (903), county seat of Newton County (Newton), and school district assignment (Newton 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.
