Alva serves as the prominent urban hub of Woods County, defined by a structured street grid that hosts Northwestern Oklahoma State Univ. The town's layout reflects a legacy of careful planning, with educational and religious institutions such as the Sacred Heart Cem and Alva Municipal Cem situated on the western periphery. The surrounding landscape is characterized by the winding path of the Salt Fork Arkansas River, which cuts through the prairie terrain alongside several smaller waterways like Turkey Cr and Boggy Cr. Transportation and commerce are centered around the local aviation facilities, including Alva Regional Airport and Woodlake Airport, while the smaller settlement of Noel and agricultural landmarks like Bouziden Lake illustrate the rural character of the outlying sections of the county.
