How to Use This Post, Texas Map

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

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.

Post emerges from the high plains as a stark composition of red earth and wide, unencumbered horizons where the sky claims the greater portion of the view. It lies 38.4 miles southeast of Lubbock, TX (from Lubbock, TX: bearing 134°T), and is situated 22.9 miles southeast of Slaton. The landscape around Post is defined by the subtle, persistent erosion of the caprock, leaving behind a terrain that shifts from flat tablelands into the gentle declivities of Hensley Draw, located twelve miles to the west. Near the center of the settlement, City Park provides a quiet expanse of green where the local pace slows, allowing the afternoon light to stretch long shadows across the grass. Only a mile away, the waters of Two Draw Lake and the quiet flow of Sand Creek trace the edges of the arid basin, offering a cooling reprieve in a region where the air is often dry and crisp. On the distant horizon, the faint silhouette of Indian Ridge rises nineteen miles away, a rugged reminder of the geologic forces that shaped this expansive, sun-drenched plateau.

Post retains the indelible mark of its origins as a planned enterprise, an identity forged by the vision of a founder who sought to cultivate order in the untamed expanse of the Llano Estacado. The economy remains tethered to the rhythmic demands of agriculture and the industrious spirit of those who manage the surrounding fields and ranches, balancing heritage with the practicalities of modern commerce. Within the streets of Post, the architecture reflects a mid-century ambition, with sturdy buildings that have weathered decades of western winds and intense summer heat. The local character is defined by a quiet resilience, a trait common to those who live where the scale of the earth makes every human endeavor seem both modest and significant. Life here moves with a steady, deliberate consistency, observed in the morning light that illuminates the storefronts and the evening stillness that descends as the heat dissipates from the soil.
