How to Use This Taylor Landing, Texas Map

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

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.

Taylor Landing endures as a low-slung expanse of marshy terrain and brackish water, where the horizon dissolves into the humid, salt-heavy haze of the Gulf coast. It lies 11.4 miles southwest of Nederland, TX (from Nederland, TX: bearing 227°T), and is situated 15.6 miles south of Beaumont. The landscape is defined by the sluggish, tea-colored currents of Taylor Bayou, which carves a vein through the silt-heavy earth only a mile from the center of activity. To the north, the land dips into the depressions of Red Haw Gully, while the quiet, stagnant surface of Shallow Prong Lake reflects a sky that seems perpetually heavy with moisture. Beyond the immediate thickets, the silhouette of Big Hill rises faintly in the distance, a singular punctuation mark on an otherwise flat and featureless plain that keeps a vigilant watch over the nearby reaches of French Island.

Taylor Landing anchors its identity in the rhythms of the J.D. Murphree Wildlife Management Area, an expansive sanctuary that dictates the pace of life for those who work the land and water. The economy remains tethered to the shifting tides and the ecological health of the coast, as the proximity to Derring Gully ensures a constant, albeit subtle, dialogue between the inhabitants and the rising brine. History here is written in the mud and the slow reclamation of the shoreline, where the remnants of past industry have long since yielded to the encroaching reeds and the persistent, rhythmic hum of insects. Life in Taylor Landing moves with a deliberate, unadorned gravity, favoring the solitude of the marsh over the clamor of the interior, grounding every resident in the singular, saline beauty of a world that is always waiting for the water to return.

About This Taylor Landing Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Taylor Landing, Texas. Coordinates: 29.86222, -94.131081. 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 Taylor Landing includes the ZIP code (77705), telephone area code (281), county seat of Jefferson County (Beaumont), and school district assignment (Hamshire-Fannett 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.
