How to Use This Pickton, Texas Map

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

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.

Pickton sprawls across a quiet expanse of East Texas, where the terrain yields to a landscape of dense, verdant woodlands and sprawling pastures that stretch toward the distant silhouette of Stivers Hill. It lies 14.3 miles east-southeast of Sulphur Springs, TX (from Sulphur Springs, TX: bearing 122°T), and is situated 7.7 miles northwest of Winnsboro. The air here holds a heavy, humid stillness, often thick with the scent of damp earth and pine needles that settle over the low-lying fields. Two miles away, the sluggish waters of Big Sandy Creek carve a narrow, twisting path through the underbrush, providing a lifeline for the local fauna that dart through the shadows at twilight. Seven miles out, the waters of Lake Winnsboro catch the flat, golden light of the setting sun, turning the surface into a mirror that briefly holds the burning orange of the horizon before the sky fades into a bruised purple.

Pickton retains the echoes of a rural heritage defined by the slow, deliberate work of agriculture and the persistent endurance of those who first cleared these thickets. The local economy remains tethered to the land, moving in the rhythm of seasonal harvests and the steady maintenance of fences that mark the boundaries of private acreage. While the pace of life remains unhurried, the residents gather for local recreation at the Unknown Ball Park, where the dust kicked up by a game hangs suspended in the afternoon heat. History here is not found in grand monuments, but in the way the sunlight catches the weathered wood of old barns and the quiet resolve of a place that prefers to keep its own counsel, far removed from the clamor of larger, more frantic centers of commerce.

About This Pickton Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Pickton, Texas. Coordinates: 33.028175, -95.393004. 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 Pickton includes the ZIP code (75471), telephone area code (972, 469), county seat of Hopkins County (Sulphur Springs), and school district assignment.

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.
