Clay County is a community with a humid subtropical climate. Residents experience four beautiful and distinct seasons that help showcase scenic views of a 5,000-foot mountain peak and over 1,500-foot valleys. It is ideally located in the Blue Ridge Mountains and is bordered to the south by the Chattahoochee National Forest and the state of Georgia. On its northeastern border is the Nantahala River. Meanwhile, in the southern part of Clay County is Chatuge Lake.
Clay County is the third-smallest county in North Carolina by land area and the smallest by total area. The county population is just over 11,000. These figures, however, do not erase the fact of how living here could be a great experience.
