Explore West Point, Texas, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for West Point, 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 West Point.
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.

West Point anchors itself firmly upon the quiet, sun-bleached expanse of the Texas interior, where the land stretches wide toward the horizon in a pattern of open fields and stubborn scrub oak. It lies 20.2 miles southeast of Bastrop, TX (from Bastrop, TX: bearing 125°T), and is situated 10.0 miles west-northwest of La Grange. Criswell Creek carves a slow, meandering path near the edge of the settlement, its banks lined with dense thickets that hold the lingering dampness of the morning long after the sun has climbed high. To the west, the subtle rise of Indian Hill breaks the otherwise level silhouette of the plains, acting as a fixed point in a landscape that feels vast and indifferent to the clock. The air here carries the scent of dry earth and cured grasses, a stillness that deepens as the light shifts to a bruised, dusty violet during the final hours of the day.
West Point maintains a character defined by its agricultural roots and the steady, unpretentious industry of those who work the surrounding soil. Historical markers speak to a time of settlement when the promise of fertile ground brought families to Rabbs Prairie, an expanse that continues to influence the local economy through farming and ranching interests. Residents often look toward the shade offered at Plum Park on the Colorado for respite, finding a quiet connection to the land that remains largely unchanged by the frantic pace of the modern world. Life in West Point moves with the deliberate weight of tradition, where the concerns of the harvest and the maintenance of the homestead remain the primary rhythms of the day, far removed from the cooling influence of Lake Thunderbird or the distant, crowded edges of the state.

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.
