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

Roseboro is located at 34.9529°N, 78.5086°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. Roseboro is an incorporated locality. ZIP code: 28382.Roseboro occupies a stretch of North Carolina flatland where the horizon remains wide and unencumbered by the distant rise of Mac Ridge. It lies 22.0 miles east-southeast of Fayetteville, NC (from Fayetteville, NC: bearing 108°T), and is situated 10.9 miles west-southwest of Clinton. The landscape here favors the patient work of agriculture, defined by a humid, heavy air that settles over the fields long after the sun has retreated. A mile from the center, the waters of Mulatto Branch carve a slow, dark path through the soil, while the stillness of Williams Pond offers a quiet, glassy reflection of the pines. Within the perimeter of the Town of Roseboro - Roseboro Park, the ground is level and well-tended, serving as a social anchor where the light of late afternoon turns the pine needles to a deep, burnished copper.
Roseboro carries the weight of a history rooted in the rhythmic cycles of the tobacco harvest and the steady mechanical hum of local industry. The economy maintains a grounded character, reflecting the agrarian traditions that once defined the surrounding expanse of the Big Pond Swamp basin. Life here proceeds with a deliberate, measured pace, far removed from the frenetic energy of larger hubs, yet linked to the wider world through the persistent labor of its inhabitants. Though the distant shade of Bladen Lakes State Forest marks the edge of the wilderness, the daily focus remains on the streets and storefronts that compose the local identity, preserving a way of life that values the tangible over the ephemeral.

About This Roseboro Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Roseboro, North Carolina. Coordinates: 34.952948, -78.508618. 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 Roseboro includes the ZIP code (28382), telephone area code (704, 980), county seat of Sampson County (Clinton), and school district assignment (Sampson 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.
