Explore Oak Ridge, 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 Oak Ridge, 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 Oak Ridge.
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.

Oak Ridge occupies a quiet expanse of land where the persistent, winding course of Indian Creek carves a path through the earth, marking the terrain with its steady, unadorned presence. It lies 5.7 miles east-northeast of Gainesville, TX (from Gainesville, TX: bearing 74°T), and is situated 7.6 miles west of Whitesboro. The landscape unfolds in a series of subtle elevations, where sunlight filters through the canopy to create long, shifting shadows across the open ground, while the distant, hazy silhouette of Wolf Ridge defines the horizon line like a permanent, silent sentinel. A mere two miles away, the surface of Lake Dealey reflects the expansive Texas sky, its waters offering a stillness that seems to permeate the surrounding fields and woodlands. The air here holds a distinct clarity, particularly as the day wanes and the heat of the afternoon yields to a crisp, cooling twilight that settles over the prairie.
Oak Ridge remains a testament to the enduring nature of inland settlement, where the rhythm of daily life is tied to the cycles of the land and the modest industries that have sustained families for generations. While the influence of larger regional centers is felt in the steady flow of commerce, the local character is shaped by the proximity of Edison Park, which serves as a vital anchor for those who value the preservation of the natural environment. The economy has long balanced the needs of agriculture with a gradual evolution toward modern enterprise, ensuring that the legacy of the early settlers persists in the way the land is managed and respected. Despite the changing tides of industry, Oak Ridge maintains an atmosphere of quiet persistence, where the passage of time is measured not by the rush of the world beyond, but by the slow, seasonal transformations of the creek and the enduring stability of the plains.

Detailed location data for Oak Ridge includes the ZIP code (75161, 76240, 75961), telephone area code (903, 214, 469), county seat of Cooke County (Gainesville), and school district assignment (Callisburg 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.
