How to Use This Travis, Texas Map

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

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.

Travis is a locality in Falls County, Texas, United States. It is a small community with a population of 480. The population density is 5.0 people per km². Travis is located at 31.1355°N, 97.0028°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP codes: 76656, 77480.

Travis occupies a stretch of sun-bleached prairie where the horizon remains wide and indifferent to the passage of men. It lies 20.3 miles east of Temple, TX (from Temple, TX: bearing 83°T), and is situated 13.3 miles south-southwest of Marlin. Cottonwood Creek carves a shallow, meandering path through the earth, its banks lined with stubborn brush that drinks deep when the seasonal rains arrive. To the north, the elevation rises toward the distant, hazy silhouette of Bald Hill, a landmark that marks the transition from the flat plains to the more rugged terrain of the interior. The air here holds a dry, heat-heavy stillness, particularly in the long afternoons when the light turns the color of parched wheat and shadows lengthen across the hard-packed soil.

Travis maintains a quiet persistence, its economy tethered to the cycles of the land and the modest commerce of a rural crossroads. The proximity to Panther Field offers a sanctuary of uncultivated brush and wild grass, a rare pocket of stillness five miles from the center of activity. While the Soil Conservation Service Site 7 Reservoir sits sixteen miles away, it serves as a silent, distant anchor for the region, catching the runoff that sustains the sprawling agricultural fields surrounding the locality. Life in Travis follows the slow, deliberate rhythm of the seasons, defined by the work of those who labor in the heat and the stubborn endurance of a place that asks for little and offers the wide, open sky in return.

About This Travis Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Travis, Texas. Coordinates: 31.135459, -97.002768. 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 Travis includes the ZIP code (76656, 77480), telephone area code (325, 281), county seat of Falls County (Marlin), and school district assignment.

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.
