How to Use This Sullivan City, Texas Map

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

Sullivan City stretches across a flat, sun-drenched expanse of South Texas brushland where the horizon remains wide and uninterrupted by any rise in the earth. It lies 12.3 miles west-northwest of Palmview, TX (from Palmview, TX: bearing 284°T), and is situated 8.0 miles west-southwest of Salida del Sol Estates. The air here holds a heavy, dry heat that softens the edges of the mesquite and prickly pear, creating a landscape defined by its resilience and the sharp, brilliant clarity of the afternoon light. Only two miles to the south, the Rio Grande carves its path through the silt and sediment, a silent artery that has shaped the character of the soil for generations. Sullivan City Memorial Park sits a mere mile away, offering a quiet green reprieve where the native grasses sway in the wind, grounding the neighborhood in a stillness that feels ancient and deliberate. Four miles to the north, the waters of La Joya Lake reflect the vast, changing skies, providing a singular, shimmering anchor in the otherwise scrub-covered plains.

Agriculture and the steady hum of commerce form the backbone of Sullivan City, where the daily rhythm is dictated by the movement of goods and the seasonal demands of the land. Families here have long cultivated a life that balances the intensity of the border-country sun with a deep-rooted, bilingual heritage that informs every conversation and gesture. The economy relies on the persistence of local trade and the industrious nature of those who work the surrounding fields, turning the dusty, fertile earth into a source of stability. Residents often gather near Sullivan City Memorial Park, where the camaraderie of the region manifests in simple, unadorned ways, reflecting a culture that values endurance and the quiet dignity of a day’s labor. As dusk settles, the transition from the golden glare of the afternoon to a soft, violet twilight reveals a place that is unpretentious, patient, and entirely defined by its own geography.

About This Sullivan City Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Sullivan City, Texas. Coordinates: 26.277571, -98.563633. 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 Sullivan City includes the ZIP code (78595), telephone area code (830), county seat of Hidalgo County (Edinburg), and school district assignment (La Joya 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.
