2018 Map of Burbank

About this map

Burbank and the surrounding Osage County landscape appear here in a transition between its industrial history and agricultural present. This region, characterized by the branching drainages of Salt Creek and Little Chief Cr, was once central to the Burbank Oil Field, reflected in place names like Carter Nine and the small settlement of Little Chief. The township grid system is well-defined by local routes such as Cameron Rd and Whizbang Rd, whose names hint at the area's early 20th-century boomtown legacy. North of the town center, Burbank Cem and Charlotte Lake provide specific landmarks for local history. The map also captures the path of Old State Hwy 18 and Old Hwy 60, tracing the evolution of transportation through the tallgrass prairie. To the south, the settlement of Remington sits near the headwaters of Solomon Cr, illustrating the dispersed nature of these historic rural communities.
