Explore Wixon Valley, 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 Wixon Valley, 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 Wixon Valley.
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.

Wixon Valley occupies a quiet expanse of the Texas landscape where the horizon stretches wide across flat, sun-bleached plains and modest rises that soften the intensity of the afternoon heat. It lies 6.8 miles north-northeast of Bryan, TX (from Bryan, TX: bearing 27°T), and is situated 9.3 miles north of College Station. The earth here holds a stubborn, clay-heavy quality, grounding the open fields that define the perimeter of Wixon Valley and allow the light to linger with a golden, unfiltered clarity until the sun dips toward the shadow of Red Hill. Dense thickets of native brush and sporadic stands of post oak mark the transition between the working acreage and the slow, meandering path of Wickson Creek, which carves a shallow, vital artery through the surrounding soil. During the height of summer, the air grows heavy and still, carrying the faint, dry scent of parched grass and the distant promise of a cooling shift in the wind.
Agriculture and the steady pulse of rural commerce dictate the rhythm of life here, favoring a deliberate, measured pace that predates the modern sprawl encroaching from the periphery. While residents often look toward the quiet recreation found at Siena Estates Park for an afternoon of respite, the legacy of the land remains tethered to the generations who managed the fence lines and negotiated with the temperamental weather of the plains. Far from the distractions of the coast, the local character is defined by a sturdy self-reliance and an appreciation for the subtle shifts in the seasons, whether one is traversing the Lake Bryan Trail or simply observing the evening migration of birds near Country Club Lake. The economy persists with a quiet tenacity, reflecting a heritage of hard-won progress that favors the endurance of the land over the fleeting ambitions of the city.

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.
