How to Use This Clifton, Ohio Map

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

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.

Clifton occupies a quiet expanse of the Ohio landscape, defined by the persistent, rhythmic cutting of Mason Run as it winds through the limestone bedrock. It lies 10.0 miles north-northwest of Marietta, OH (from Marietta, OH: bearing 329°T), and is situated 6.0 miles northwest of Devola. The terrain rises steadily toward the distant silhouette of Tick Ridge, establishing a horizon that feels both vast and intimate under the shifting Midwestern light. Two miles away, the stillness of Strahler Pond mirrors the pale, expansive sky, providing a cool contrast to the sun-warmed fields that stretch toward the low-lying basin of Federal Bottom. Here, the air carries a distinct, earthy weight, particularly during the transition of seasons when the humidity of the plains meets the cooling influence of the nearby Muskingum River Parkway State Park.

Clifton emerged from the nineteenth-century ambition of those who recognized the utility of the local water power, grounding the local economy in a legacy of milling and small-scale enterprise. While the heavy industrial roar of the past has faded into a quieter, more deliberate pace, the physical remnants of these early ventures remain etched into the architecture of the streets. Life in Clifton balances between the necessity of modern labor and a profound connection to the land, where the seasonal cycles dictate the rhythm of the day more than any clock. Residents move with a steady, unhurried purpose, finding a quiet beauty in the way the shadows lengthen across the gray stone facades as the afternoon light wanes.

About This Clifton Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Clifton, Ohio. Coordinates: 39.797226, -83.825423. 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 Clifton includes the ZIP code (45220, 45744, 45316), telephone area code (937), county seat of Washington County (Marietta), and school district assignment (Cedar Cliff Local School District).

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.
