How to Use This Pink Hill, North Carolina Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Pink Hill, 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 Pink Hill.
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.

ZIP code: 28572.Pink Hill emerges from the flat, dark earth of the coastal plain, defined by the slow, deliberate pulse of the Cherrytree Branch winding its path through the nearby soil. It lies 17.1 miles south-southwest of Kinston, NC (from Kinston, NC: bearing 213°T), and is situated 17.5 miles south of La Grange. The horizon remains stubbornly low, a vast expanse of open fields where the light at dusk turns the sky a bruised, heavy gold before settling into a cool, gray stillness. To the far west, the faint, jagged silhouette of the Blue Ridge serves as a distant boundary, too remote to touch the daily life of the local inhabitants. The landscape is marked by the quiet presence of the Lenoir County - Lenoir County Recreation Park, a space where the grass grows thick and the air holds the scent of damp pine and turned dirt.
Pink Hill maintains a steady, agrarian pace, its economy long anchored by the cultivation of tobacco and the steady labor of those who know how to coax a living from the stubborn, fertile ground. The legacy of these fields persists in the architecture and the deliberate, unhurried manners of the people, a culture shaped by the demands of the harvest and the changing seasons. Residents often look toward the nearby Maxwell Millpond, a mirror for the overhanging oaks that marks a point of stillness in the landscape. Beyond the reach of the Picadilly Pond basin, the rhythms of work and rest continue in a pattern set by generations, favoring the reliability of the land over the frantic pace of the wider world.

About This Pink Hill Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Pink Hill, North Carolina. Coordinates: 35.055164, -77.746365. 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 Pink Hill includes the ZIP code (28572), telephone area code (910), county seat of Lenoir County (Kinston), and school district assignment (Lenoir 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.
