Overview

Clinton, NC has 24 registered antenna structures on the FCC register — the 31st largest count among the 603 places in North Carolina that have any.

Counted against 8,466 residents, that is 283.5 per 100,000 — worth reading alongside area density, since structures cluster along roads and ridgelines rather than where people sleep.

At a median of 80 m (261 ft), structures here run 2.6% taller than the North Carolina median of 78 m (255 ft).

The mix here is 5 lattice towers, 2 guyed masts, 1 monopole — the rest of the register is made up of rooftops, water tanks and structures the FCC records without a specific type.

The earliest structure still on the register here dates from 1947.

About this data

The underlying records are the FCC's own registrations as of 2026-08-23. Every structure counted here carries a registration number you can check against the FCC directly.

The FCC Antenna Structure Registration database covers structures that require registration — generally those over 200 feet or near airports. Many small cells, rooftop antennas and short towers are not registered and will not appear here.

"Owner" is the entity that registered the structure, usually a tower company such as American Tower or Crown Castle. It does not indicate which carriers operate equipment on the structure.
