Flemington’s center stands about 50 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 20 ft to 120 ft, a difference of 100 ft: gently rolling country.
The section below crosses 4 rock units mapped at the surface.
Heights every 0.1 mile from the Copernicus GLO-90 surface model; vertical exaggeration about 64×. The colored band under the surface is the rock the state geologic map shows at the surface, not a picture of what lies beneath.

A raindrop that lands in Flemington reaches the Atlantic Ocean by way of Peacock Creek and the North Newport: about 35 river miles.
Traced down the USGS NHDPlus V2.1 river network from the Census center point of Flemington; river miles along the main stem, rounded.
Flemington has a humid subtropical climate. Summer afternoons average 92° in July; winter nights fall to about 41° in January. About 51 inches of rain fall in a normal year.
