How to Use This Poteet, Texas Map

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

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.

Poteet anchors the flat, sun-drenched expanse of South Texas where the horizon stretches wide and unburdened by the distant, hazy silhouette of the Edwards Plateau. It lies 7.4 miles northwest of Pleasanton, TX (from Pleasanton, TX: bearing 313°T), and is situated 8.6 miles north of Jourdanton. The landscape around Poteet is defined by a quiet, persistent earthiness, marked by the nearby, slow-moving Atascosa River and the subtle, sun-warmed depression of Rutledge Hollow. Here, the light at dusk possesses a singular quality, turning the dusty plains into a deep, bruised copper that seems to hold the heat long after the sun has slipped away. Visitors often find solace in the open air of Poteet Canyon Park, where the vegetation clings to the arid soil with a quiet, stubborn grace that speaks to the resilience of the inland scrub.

Agriculture defines the spirit of Poteet, which remains inextricably tied to the seasonal cycles of the strawberry harvest, a tradition that has colored the local identity for generations. The economic pulse of the region beats in rhythm with the soil, drawing laborers and families into a shared, industrious history that values the tangible results of a long day’s work. While Victor Braunig Lake sits miles to the north, the focus here remains grounded in the immediate fields and the modest, enduring architecture of the local storefronts. Life moves with a deliberate, steady cadence, unconcerned with the frantic pace of the outside world, favoring instead the simple continuity of a life built upon the land and the changing seasons.

About This Poteet Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Poteet, Texas. Coordinates: 29.040524, -98.568074. 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 Poteet includes the ZIP code (78065), telephone area code (210, 726), county seat of Atascosa County (Jourdanton), and school district assignment (Poteet 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.
