Non Sung (Thai: โนนสูง) is a district (Amphoe) in the central part of Nakhon Ratchasima Province, northeastern Thailand.
The old name of the district was Klang. The word Klang in Thai means middle, which refers to the location of the district between the Nok district (now Bua Yai district) and Nai district (Mueang Nakhon Ratchasima district).
When Thai people had to choose a family name at the beginning of the 20th century, many of the locals created names with the word Klang within.
Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Khong, Phimai, Chakkarat, Chaloem Phra Kiat, Mueang Nakhon Ratchasima, Non Thai and Kham Sakaesaeng. Ban Non Wat, a village in the district is an important archaeological site from the bronze age.
The district is subdivided into 16 communes (tambon). There are two townships (thesaban tambon) within the district - Non Sung covers the whole tambon Non Sung, and Talat Khae covers parts of tambon Than Prasat.
