How to Use This Tunis, Texas Map

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

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.

About Tunis, Texas

Tunis is a locality in Burleson County, Texas, United States. It is a small community with a population of 90. The population density is 132.1 people per km². Tunis is located at 30.5449°N, 96.5272°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP code: 77836.

Tunis sprawls across the sun-baked plains where the Old River carves a slow, muddy path through the silty earth. It lies 12.8 miles west-southwest of College Station, TX (from College Station, TX: bearing 243°T), and is situated 9.9 miles east of Caldwell. The landscape here favors the long shadow, stretching across flat fields where the horizon remains unbroken save for the distant, hazy silhouette of Mockingbird Hill. During the late afternoon, the light turns a bruised gold, catching the dust kicked up by passing trucks and illuminating the sparse, hardy scrub that clings to the riverbank. Five miles to the north, the Texas A&M University Aquaculture Research Teaching Facility maintains its quiet, scientific vigilance over the water, a stark contrast to the wild, tangled thickets that define the immediate perimeter of the Old River as it winds past the edge of the grid.

Tunis grew from the necessity of the soil, anchored by a regional economy that still hums with the steady, mechanical pulse of agricultural labor and local trade. Farmers here look toward Sanders Lake when the rains fail, understanding that the water levels dictate the temperament of the coming season. The rhythm of daily life is measured not by the clock, but by the slow rotation of crops and the occasional stillness that settles over the main thoroughfares after the sun dips below the western plains. There is a quiet, enduring gravity to the place, a persistence found in the weathered storefronts and the way residents speak of the land as if it were a stubborn but familiar neighbor, neither welcoming nor hostile, simply existing as the foundation upon which their quiet histories are written.

About This Tunis Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Tunis, Texas. Coordinates: 30.544925, -96.52719. 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 Tunis includes the ZIP code (77836), telephone area code (409), county seat of Burleson County (Caldwell), and school district assignment (Snook 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.
