How to Use This Whitsett, Texas Map

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

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.

Whitsett emerges from the sun-bleached expanse of the South Texas brush country, where the land stretches out in a quiet, rugged endurance. It lies 26.2 miles south-southeast of Pleasanton, TX (from Pleasanton, TX: bearing 151°T), and is situated 25.7 miles southeast of Jourdanton. Olmos Creek carves a shallow, vital artery through the terrain, its course marked by the deep green of mesquite and live oak that break the monotony of the open plains. To the north, the Lipan Hills rise like a weathered spine against the sky, while the depression of Merriman Hollow gathers the cooling shadows of late afternoon. At dusk, the light here turns a bruised, singular gold, catching the dust kicked up by the wind as it sweeps across the scrub, clarifying the distance until the horizon seems to hold the weight of the entire state.

Whitsett carries the quiet gravity of a place defined by the slow extraction of earth’s deep reserves and the seasonal pulse of ranching life. The surrounding acreage, which includes the expansive reaches of the James E. Daughtrey Wildlife Management Area, serves as a sanctuary for white-tailed deer and migratory birds, echoing the wilder character of the region before the fences were drawn. Residents have long looked toward Yarbrough Lake as a point of stillness in the landscape, a place where the heat of the day recedes into the stillness of the water. Life here moves with the deliberate pace of a long-standing rural industry, where the rhythmic clatter of equipment and the isolation of the plains create a culture of self-reliance, leaving the modern world to hum faintly in the distance.

About This Whitsett Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Whitsett, Texas. Coordinates: 28.634153, -98.271954. 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 Whitsett includes the ZIP code (78071, 78075), telephone area code (210, 726), county seat of Live Oak County (George West), 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.
