How to Use This Santa Clara, Texas Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Santa Clara, 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 Santa Clara.
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.

ZIP codes: 78155, 78124.Santa Clara stretches across a quiet expanse of Texas prairie where the horizon line remains unbroken by the jagged silhouettes of distant, far-flung heights like the Edwards Plateau. It lies 7.2 miles east-southeast of Cibolo, TX (from Cibolo, TX: bearing 118°T), and is situated 9.3 miles east-southeast of Schertz. Santa Clara Creek carves a persistent, winding path through the local terrain, its banks lined with the deep, enduring roots of native trees that drink from the steady flow. During the golden hour, the light thickens, turning the tall grasses into a sea of amber that ripples under the weight of a warm, inland breeze. Those who seek solace in the wilder corners of the landscape often find their way to Park, a solitary green refuge four miles away that preserves the quietude of the plains.
History in Santa Clara remains etched in the stubborn persistence of family landholdings and the slow, deliberate turn of the agricultural calendar. The local economy draws its strength from the soil, where the rhythm of planting and harvest dictates the heartbeat of the daily routine. Residents maintain a steady, unadorned pace, often looking toward the horizon where the distant sky meets the earth in an endless, cloud-dappled expanse. While the Soil Conservation Service Site 3 Reservoir lies eleven miles away as a testament to the careful management of water in this arid climate, the true character of Santa Clara is found in the simple, honest labor of those who work the fields and the quiet dignity of a life lived far from the frantic noise of modern density.

About This Santa Clara Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Santa Clara, Texas. Coordinates: 29.574431, -98.171083. 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 Santa Clara includes the ZIP code (78155, 78124), telephone area code (210), county seat of Guadalupe County (Seguin), and school district assignment (Marion 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.
