How to Use This Clarks Green, Pennsylvania Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Clarks Green, Pennsylvania. 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 Pennsylvania 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 Clarks Green.

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.

Clarks Green emerges from the rising ground of the Allegheny Plateau as a collection of quiet, tree-lined streets that catch the long, golden light of late afternoon. It lies 6.1 miles north-northwest of Scranton, PA (from Scranton, PA: bearing 342°T), and is situated 6.1 miles northwest of Dunmore. Hemlock Drive Park provides a localized canopy of shade where the air remains cool and still, even as the day wanes toward evening. To the west, the land slopes toward the path of Leggetts Creek, which carves a modest, persistent channel through the earth, while the waters of Lance Pond hold a mirror to the shifting clouds above. On the distant horizon, the silhouette of the Pocono Mountains defines the edge of the world, a muted blue serration against the sky that reminds the observer of the vast, ancient geography holding this place in place.

History in Clarks Green is measured less by grand monuments and more by the steady persistence of its residential character, evolving from its early roots into a place that values the quietude of its domestic borders. While the regional economy was once deeply tied to the anthracite memory of the surrounding valleys, the modern rhythm of the locality is defined by the daily movement of people traveling toward regional centers of education and service. Residents might seek a change of pace by walking the Pinnacle Trail or visiting the geological curiosity of the Archbald Pothole, yet there is a distinct satisfaction in returning to the local scale of the neighborhood. Even the nearby rush of Nay Aug Falls feels like a distant echo, allowing Clarks Green to maintain a composure that is both grounded and entirely its own.

About This Clarks Green Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Clarks Green, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 41.492856, -75.699636. 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 Clarks Green includes the ZIP code (18411), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Lackawanna County (Scranton), and school district assignment (Abington Heights 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.
