How to Use This Boring, Oregon Map

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

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 Boring, Oregon

Boring is a locality in Clackamas County, Oregon, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,931. The population density is 173.1 people per km². Boring is located at 45.4298°N, 122.3748°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP code: 97009.

Boring occupies a quiet expanse of land where the North Fork Deep Creek carves a persistent, shadowed path through the dense, evergreen-heavy landscape. It lies 4.2 miles east-northeast of Damascus, OR (from Damascus, OR: bearing 78°T), and is situated 5.5 miles south-southeast of Gresham. The air here holds a cool, persistent moisture that clings to the Douglas firs and salal, dampening the sounds of the day until only the rhythmic rush of water remains. To the east, the distant silhouette of the Coast Range hangs like a faint, serrated ink-stroke against the horizon, a reminder of the vast, rugged theater that lies far beyond these immediate fields. Near the center of the terrain, Boring Station Trailhead Park serves as a quiet threshold, offering a place where the stillness of the forest meets the edge of human activity, and where the light at dusk turns the canopy into a deep, bruised violet.

Agriculture and the slow, deliberate pulse of rural industry define the character of Boring, as the soil yields to the careful stewardship of local farms and nurseries. While the nearby Sunshine Valley offers a gentler topography, the land here remains stubbornly functional, shaped by a history of timber and harvest that keeps the rhythm of life steady and unadorned. Residents might travel eight miles to observe the seasonal intensity of The Falls, yet the true gravity of the region is found in the everyday maintenance of the landscape, from the quiet maintenance of Welling Reservoir to the steady passage of traffic through the crossroads. There is a particular, grounded honesty in the way the morning fog settles over the acreage, signaling a place that does not seek to be anything other than what the geography allows it to be.

About This Boring Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Boring, Oregon. Coordinates: 45.429843, -122.374811. 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 Boring includes the ZIP code (97009), telephone area code (503, 971), county seat of Clackamas County (Oregon City), and school district assignment (Oregon Trail School District 46).

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.
