How to Use This Clay Township Scioto County, Ohio Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Clay Township Scioto County, 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 Clay Township Scioto County.

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 Clay Township Scioto County, Ohio

Clay Township Scioto County defines a landscape where the earth rises in stubborn, layered swells, marking the transition into the dense, shadowed foothills of the region. It lies 4.7 miles north-northeast of Portsmouth, OH (from Portsmouth, OH: bearing 17°T), and is situated 7.8 miles northwest of Wheelersburg. The terrain holds a quiet gravity, defined by the deep, narrow crease of Johnson Hollow and the persistent, low-slung presence of Woods Ridge looming four miles to the east. Munn Run carves a singular, winding path through the soil, its waters moving with a deliberate, slow-motion clarity that mirrors the stillness of the surrounding woods. At dusk, the light here does not merely fade; it thickens, catching on the jagged edges of the brush and casting long, bruised violet shadows across the fields that seem to hold the heat of the day long after the sun has slipped behind the horizon.

Clay Township Scioto County maintains a rhythm dictated by the persistent demands of its soil and the legacy of an economy tethered to the land. While the modern world presses in with its own frantic pace, residents find a grounding continuity in the vicinity of Elks Country Club, a PPRK that serves as a quiet anchor for the local spirit. Nearby, the waters of Elks Country Club Lake offer a reflective surface that disrupts the otherwise sturdy, uncompromising density of the township’s geography. The local identity remains forged in the labor of past generations who worked these ridges and hollows, leaving behind a stillness that feels less like emptiness and more like an unspoken, enduring patience for the turning of the seasons.

About This Clay Township Scioto County Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Clay Township Scioto County, Ohio. Coordinates: 38.79733, -82.971662. 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 Clay Township Scioto County includes the ZIP code (45662), telephone area code (937), county seat of Scioto County (Portsmouth), 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.
