How to Use This Clemmons, North Carolina Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Clemmons, North Carolina. 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 North Carolina 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 Clemmons.

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.

The terrain surrounding Clemmons rises and falls in modest, cultivated swells that catch the amber light of late afternoon. Johnson Creek meanders through the landscape just a mile away, its quiet flow defining the moisture of the local earth. To the west, the distant Appalachian Mountains provide a faint, serrated edge against the sky, serving as a reminder of the rugged terrain far beyond these fertile plains. The nearby Village of Clemmons Open Space - Village Point Lake offers a quiet sanctuary for local flora and fauna to thrive in peace. Across the broader horizon, the Yadkin Valley shapes the regional drainage, influencing the agricultural character that has defined the soil for generations.

Clemmons traces its roots to early crossroads settlement patterns that favored the movement of goods and people across the interior. The local economy evolved from foundational agrarian pursuits into a diverse suburban landscape that supports a modern workforce. While the shadow of historic tobacco and textile industries remains in the architectural patterns of the region, the current commercial climate focuses on professional services and regional trade. Clemmons maintains a steady pulse of activity, balancing the quietude of its residential corridors with the necessary commerce of a growing population. The proximity to regional transit arteries ensures that the movement of goods remains consistent with the needs of a contemporary, inland hub.

While Clemmons does not serve as the primary birthplace for global icons, the region is shaped by the same Southern literary and musical traditions that influence the wider state. The presence of Phillips Pond, located eleven miles away, provides a modest retreat for those seeking the stillness of reflective water. This place values the quiet accumulation of time, favoring the enduring quality of community life over the clamor of rapid change.

About This Clemmons Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Clemmons, North Carolina. Coordinates: 36.033223, -80.386699. 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 Clemmons includes the ZIP code (27012), telephone area code (336), county seat of Forsyth County (Winston-Salem), and school district assignment (Forsyth County Schools).

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.
