Explore Scroggins, 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 Scroggins, 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 Scroggins.
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.

Scroggins spreads across a landscape defined by the persistent, winding path of Brushy Creek, which carves a narrow ribbon of green through the surrounding timber and pasture. It lies 17.8 miles southwest of Mount Pleasant, TX (from Mount Pleasant, TX: bearing 225°T), and is situated 6.2 miles east of Winnsboro. The earth here holds a heavy, iron-rich quality, grounding the horizon where the modest rise of Stivers Hill breaks the otherwise level gaze of the East Texas plains. At dusk, the light catches the moisture rising off Monticello Reservoir just a few miles away, turning the air a thick, hazy gold that clings to the pine needles and tall grasses. There is a quiet, enduring weight to the terrain, a place where the heat of the day settles slowly into the soil, leaving the evening cool and still.
Scroggins grew from the necessity of the land, shaped by generations who worked the timber and the soil long before the modern reach of regional industry arrived. The economy remains tethered to the rhythm of the woods and the nearby fields, a life lived at a pace dictated by the seasons rather than the clock. Residents often look toward the quiet stretches of the Lake Bob Sandlin State Park Trail for a sense of perspective, or find their way to Winnsboro City Park when the need for communal space arises. Life in Scroggins persists with a steady, unadorned integrity, where the history of the families who first cleared these tracts is still visible in the weathered fences and the enduring, straightforward character of the people who call the place home.

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.
