This is a list of places in the United States named for DeWitt Clinton. His role in the construction of the Erie Canal created accessible Eastern seaboard markets for Midwestern agriculture and he was widely admired by settlers, especially those hailing from New York.
Some of these places may have been named for both DeWitt Clinton and his uncle George Clinton, an important figure in the founding of the United States.
