How to Use This Selman City, Texas Map

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

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.

Selman City claims its place upon the quiet, sun-baked plains where the earth breathes in the slow, rhythmic heat of the Texas interior. It lies 9.8 miles west-northwest of Henderson, TX (from Henderson, TX: bearing 285°T), and is situated 5.9 miles south of Overton. McNeil Creek carves a shallow, meandering path through the local soil, its waters often reduced to a sluggish ribbon that mirrors the pale, expansive sky. To the north, the distant silhouette of Holland Mountain marks the horizon, a muted jagged line against the haze, while the low-lying terrain remains defined by scrub brush and the persistent, dry grasses that bend under the weight of the afternoon wind. The air here holds a clarity that sharpens the edges of the horizon, turning the light at dusk into a deep, bruised amber that settles over the land with a heavy, contemplative stillness.

Selman City rose from the churn of the early oil patch, a legacy etched into the rusted pump jacks and abandoned derricks that still lean against the landscape like rusted skeletons of a bygone industry. The economy has long since shifted, trading the frantic pulse of the boomtown era for the measured, modest pace of agricultural labor and local trade. Residents often seek the shade of Overton City Park, a quiet refuge where the trees offer a reprieve from the relentless glare of the plains, or make the short journey toward the cooling periphery of Wilson Lake to watch the water catch the fading sun. Life in Selman City persists as a series of small, honest motions, governed by the turning of the seasons and the enduring, silent strength of the high-plains earth.
