UTM zones in United States
Cities and towns in United States fall in 14 UTM zone(s): 4N, 5N, 6N, 8N, 10N, 11N, 12N, 13N, 14N, 15N, 16N, 17N, 18N and 19N. Each zone is 6° of longitude wide and has its own central meridian, so a project that crosses a boundary has to pick one zone or use a national grid.
The table lists the WGS 84 / UTM EPSG code and central meridian of each zone, with some of the largest cities in it. National coordinate systems used in United States: State Plane (NAD83), NAD83 / UTM, NAD27 latitude and longitude, NAD27 State Plane, NAD83(CSRS)v6 / UTM.
