How to Use This Von Ormy, Texas Map

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

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.

Von Ormy emerges from the flat, scrub-brushed plains as a quiet expanse where the Live Oak Slough carves a low-slung, wandering path through the earth. It lies 13.0 miles southwest of San Antonio, TX (from San Antonio, TX: bearing 224°T), and is situated 6.9 miles south-southwest of Lackland AFB. The air here holds a heavy, sun-baked stillness, broken only by the thin, metallic song of cicadas rising from the mesquite thickets that define the local horizon. To the north, the land dips toward the subtle depression of Long Hollow, while the distant, hazy silhouette of the Edwards Plateau marks the edge of the world against a sky that turns the color of bruised plums at dusk. Residents often find their way to Von Ormy City Park, a modest patch of green that serves as a terrestrial anchor, offering a quiet vantage point to watch the slow, persistent reclamation of the soil by native grasses and wind-twisted trees.

History lingers in the dust of Von Ormy, a place that grew from the pragmatic needs of those who settled the arid stretches of the interior to work the land and navigate the regional trade routes. The economy remains tethered to the rhythms of the earth and the grit of small-scale industry, far removed from the frantic pace of the larger metropolitan centers that sit over a hundred miles from the nearest coastline. While the shimmer of Victor Braunig Lake remains a distant promise of water on the horizon, the daily life of the inhabitants is shaped by the immediate, practical realities of the brush country. There is a spare, unadorned dignity in the way the neighborhood maintains its own distinct character, favoring the steady, predictable cycles of the seasons over the shifting tides of modern transit and rapid development.

About This Von Ormy Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Von Ormy, Texas. Coordinates: 29.277391, -98.657373. 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 Von Ormy includes the ZIP code (78073), telephone area code (210, 726), county seat of Bexar County (San Antonio), and school district assignment (Southwest 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.
