Explore Red Lick, 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 Red Lick, 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 Red Lick.
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.

Red Lick occupies a quiet expanse of East Texas where the land settles into a rhythmic pattern of pine-shadowed woodlands and open, clay-rich clearings. It lies 7.6 miles west-northwest of Texarkana, TX (from Texarkana, TX: bearing 291°T), and is situated 4.6 miles northwest of Wake Village. Wagner Creek carves a narrow, deliberate path through this terrain, its banks lined with the damp, dark loam that anchors the local flora against the seasonal shifts of heat and rain. Looking toward the horizon, the faint, hazy silhouette of Gum Ridge anchors the western view, a reminder of the geologic folds that define the broader region beyond the immediate, unassuming plains. The air here holds a stillness, particularly at dusk, when the light turns a bruised, honeyed gold and the cicadas begin a steady, hypnotic pulse that seems to emerge from the earth itself.
Red Lick remains deeply connected to the legacy of the surrounding timber and agriculture that shaped its early settlement, though today its character is defined by a slow, measured transition into a residential extension of the wider county. Residents often find their way toward the quiet waters of Bringle Lake or the expansive, unhurried grounds of Unknown Park, both of which serve as the primary conduits for outdoor life in the immediate vicinity. While the distant, low-lying basin of Black Bottom suggests the ancient, shifting hydrology of the area, the daily life of Red Lick focuses on the intersection of modern convenience and the persistent, quiet endurance of the East Texas piney woods. It is a place where the economy remains tied to the steady rhythm of regional growth, yet the spirit of the land persists in the way the sunlight catches the needles of the loblolly pines, illuminating a landscape that values privacy and the slow accumulation of time.

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.
