How to Use This Rice, Texas Map

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

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.

Rice anchors itself upon a vast, sun-bleached expanse of North Texas prairie where the horizon stretches toward a distant, hazy silhouette of Rainbow Ridge. It lies 9.5 miles southeast of Ennis, TX (from Ennis, TX: bearing 129°T), and is situated 10.4 miles north of Corsicana. The Rice Branch cuts a sluggish, wandering path through the loamy soil, its waters often reflecting the heavy, bruised purples of an oncoming summer storm. Beyond the immediate banks, the land flattens into an open canvas of tall grasses and stubborn mesquite, where the quality of light at dusk turns the dry earth into a muted, copper-toned expanse. Rice Reservoir sits as a quiet, glassy mirror to the sky, holding the silence of the plains in its depths while the wind carries the dry, sweet scent of parched hay across the fields.

Agriculture remains the quiet pulse of the local economy, with the rhythm of the seasons dictating the slow, deliberate pace of daily life in Rice. History here is written in the rusted iron of old implements and the sturdy, unadorned architecture of homesteads that have weathered generations of heat and drought. Those seeking the outdoors often find their way to the Tonkawa Trail, which offers a path through the quiet brush, or visit the nearby Bardwell Recreation Area to observe the seasonal migration of birds across the open skies. The character of the people is as resilient as the landscape, defined by a modest, enduring connection to the soil that sustains them.

About This Rice Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Rice, Texas. Coordinates: 32.243759, -96.498597. 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 Rice includes the ZIP code (75155), telephone area code (214, 469), county seat of Navarro County (Corsicana), and school district assignment (Rice 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.
