About New Pine Creek
New Pine Creek (formerly, Pine Creek) is a census-designated place in Modoc County, California, United States. It is located on the Oregon border, 7 miles (11 km) north-northeast of Willow Ranch, at an elevation of 4842 feet (1476 m). Its population is 87 as of the 2020 census, down from 98 from the 2010 census.
A 1913 book described Pine Creek as being on Goose Lake and having a population of 300.
Despite straddling the California-Oregon border (part of the community is in Oregon), New Pine Creek is not the northernmost settlement in the state of California. A surveying error in 1868 placed the actual border half a mile south of the statutory border (the 42nd parallel). Delegations from California and Oregon held talks on the issue in 1984 after the error was discovered, but did not ultimately change New Pine Creek's status.
