How to Use This Clifford, Indiana Map

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

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.

Clifford emerges from the flat, industrious stretches of the Indiana heartland as a collection of rooftops and grain silos punctuating a horizon defined by agriculture. It lies 5.3 miles north-northeast of Bartholomew, IN (from Bartholomew, IN: bearing 12°T), and is situated 6.2 miles north-northeast of Columbus. The landscape surrounding Clifford is a tapestry of corn and soybean fields, interrupted only by the narrow, persistent meanderings of Slash-Loesch Ditch. To the west, the subtle elevation of Lester Ridge haunts the distant skyline, a faint blue line that anchors the expansive prairie sky. In the quiet hours of late afternoon, the light here grows heavy and golden, casting long, lean shadows across the fields that seem to amplify the stillness of the fertile earth.

History in Clifford is written in the steady, methodical expansion of the regional rail and road networks, which transformed the locality from a rural outpost into a quiet node of commerce. The economy remains tethered to the productivity of the soil, with the daily pulse of the area dictated by the seasonal requirements of harvest and planting. Residents seeking a reprieve from the rhythmic labor of the fields often find their way to the quiet green expanse of Blackwell Park, while those drawn to the water find the banks of Suhre Lake offer a meditative reprieve from the heat of a Midwestern summer. Life in Clifford moves with the deliberate pace of a place that understands its own utility, where the changing colors of the crops serve as the only calendar that truly matters.

About This Clifford Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Clifford, Indiana. Coordinates: 39.282273, -85.869156. 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 Clifford includes the ZIP code (47226), telephone area code (317), county seat of Bartholomew County (Columbus), and school district assignment (Flat Rock-Hawcreek School Corporation).

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.
