How to Use This Claridon, Ohio Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Claridon, Ohio. 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 Ohio 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 Claridon.

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.

About Claridon, Ohio

Claridon is a locality in Marion County, Ohio, United States. Claridon is located at 40.5831°N, 82.9969°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 43314, 44024.

Claridon occupies a quiet expanse of the Ohio landscape, where the Olentangy River carves a deliberate path through the fertile, heavy soil. It lies 6.9 miles east of Marion, OH (from Marion, OH: bearing 93°T), and is situated 8.0 miles east-southeast of Marion Township. The topography here favors a subtle, deliberate flatness, broken only by the occasional rise of a field or the quiet persistence of dense woodland thickets. At the edges of the day, the light performs a slow migration across the corn rows, turning the horizon a bruised, metallic gray that seems to hold the very weight of the plains. Whetstone Golf and Swimming offers a singular point of human architecture amidst this wide, unassuming terrain, grounding the vastness of the sky with the manicured geometry of its greens and the stillness of its water.

Claridon holds a character forged by the steady, industrious rhythms of regional agriculture and the slow transition from agrarian roots to the modern pulse of the interior. Distant whispers of North Ridge occasionally define the skyline for those who look far enough toward the horizon, yet the daily life of the population remains tethered to the local soil and the nearby waters of the Olentangy River. While the Mount Gilead Lakes lie ten miles away, providing a distinct respite for those seeking the stillness of deeper pools, the local economy remains anchored in the persistent, quiet labor of the land. There is a particular honesty in the way the local seasons turn, marked by the changing textures of the crops and the muffled sound of winter settling over the fields, ensuring that Claridon remains defined by its own authentic, unhurried persistence.

About This Claridon Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Claridon, Ohio. Coordinates: 40.583115, -82.996853. 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 Claridon includes the ZIP code (43314, 44024), telephone area code (614, 216), county seat of Marion County (Marion), and school district assignment.

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.
