How to Use This Walnut Springs, Texas Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Walnut Springs, 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 Walnut Springs.
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.

ZIP codes: 75125, 76690.Walnut Springs emerges from the sun-bleached prairie as a quiet intersection of limestone earth and persistent, wind-swept grasses. It lies 8.2 miles south of Seagoville, TX (from Seagoville, TX: bearing 187°T), and is situated 8.9 miles east-southeast of Wilmer. The landscape carries the weight of the horizon, where the distant, hazy silhouette of White House Ridge marks the edge of the sky. To the north, the terrain dips toward the channel of Old Tenmile Creek, where the water carves a narrow, shaded path through the brush, and the quiet surface of Soil Conservation Service Site 9 Reservoir reflects the shifting amber hues of the Texas sunset. The air here holds the dry scent of cedar and parched soil, a clarity that sharpens the edges of every fence line and weathered barn.
History resides in the quiet endurance of Walnut Springs, a place shaped by the legacy of the railroad and the resilience of those who worked the surrounding ranch lands. The local economy remains anchored to the rhythms of agriculture and the steady, unadorned labor of the interior plains. While the pace of life feels tethered to the slow turn of the seasons, the presence of Mutts Park offers a rare patch of respite where the native flora flourishes undisturbed. Walnut Springs maintains its own sense of time, indifferent to the clamor of the wider world, favoring the steady hum of insects in the tall grass and the long, slanted shadows that stretch across the fields as the day recedes into a deep, star-dusted velvet.

About This Walnut Springs Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Walnut Springs, Texas. Coordinates: 32.056979, -97.750568. 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 Walnut Springs includes the ZIP code (75125, 76690), telephone area code (214, 469, 325), county seat of Ellis County (Waxahachie), and school district assignment (Walnut Springs 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.
