About this map

The North Canadian River cuts across the northern landscape, anchoring a sprawling urban corridor that connects Oklahoma City to the neighboring municipalities of Midwest City and Del City. The mid-1990s development is defined by major infrastructure, with the vast expanse of Tinker Air Force Base occupying the southeastern quadrant and a complex network of levees and aqueducts managing the local water flow.

Genealogists and local historians can trace community foundations through numerous civic landmarks, from the Sunnylane Cemetery to educational centers like Rose State College. The map reveals the intersection of residential growth and industry, showing a terrain dotted with tank farms and golf courses. Smaller enclaves such as Smith Village and Valley Brook maintain their distinct boundaries amidst the larger metropolitan expansion, while the southern edge provides a glimpse of the reservoir system at Stanley Draper Lake.
