About this map

McAlester and North McAlester serve as the primary hubs in this part of Pittsburg County, showing a well-developed urban grid alongside significant institutional and transport infrastructure. The landscape is notably marked by the presence of several specialized burial grounds, including the North McAlester Cem, Haile Cem, and the Prison Cem, reflecting the area's long history as home to state facilities. Beyond the city center, the Indian Nation Tpke and Mc Alester Regional Airport facilitate regional movement, while Bald Mtn rises as a distinct landmark south of the main settlement.

Water management is central to the area's layout, with Lake Talawanda Number One and Lake Talawanda Number Two situated near Prison Lake and several other reservoirs. These water bodies, along with Sandy Creek and Coal Creek, are woven through a mix of industrial and residential zones. To the south, the settlement of Frink sits near the winding paths of Dancing Rabbit Creek and Peaceable Creek, showing the transition from the dense urban streets of the county seat to more open terrain.
