How to Use This Snow Hill, North Carolina Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Snow 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 Snow 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.

Snow Hill emerges from the flat, fertile plains of the coastal plain, characterized by a quiet expanse of dark earth that stretches toward the horizon. It lies 14.2 miles north-northwest of Kinston, NC (from Kinston, NC: bearing 337°T), and is situated 18.1 miles east-northeast of Goldsboro. Contentnea Creek winds sluggishly through the low-lying terrain just a mile from the center, its tea-colored waters reflecting the broad, open sky. A few miles away, the stillness of Turnage Millpond provides a sanctuary for quiet reflection, while the landscape remains defined by the steady, unadorned work of the sun on open fields. At dusk, the light here turns a bruised, heavy gold, catching the dust of the fields and settling over the land with a gravity that feels as old as the soil itself.

Agriculture has long dictated the pulse of Snow Hill, anchoring a local economy that remains deeply tied to the rhythms of planting and harvest. The legacy of tobacco and the steady persistence of rural industry define the character of the people, who maintain a deliberate, measured pace of life far removed from the frantic energy of larger centers. Residents often gather at the Greene County - Greene County Sports Complex to mark the passage of the seasons, a space that serves as a modern focal point for the daily social life of the region. Even as the decades shift, the identity of Snow Hill remains rooted in this commitment to the land and the quiet, enduring traditions of a life lived close to the earth.

About This Snow Hill Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Snow Hill, North Carolina. Coordinates: 35.450529, -77.67678. 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 Snow Hill includes the ZIP code (27016, 27980, 27563), telephone area code (919, 984, 910), county seat of Greene County (Snow Hill), and school district assignment (Greene 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.
