Oakes serves as the primary hub in this southeastern North Dakota landscape, situated along the eastern bank of the James River. The town's grid is detailed with street names ranging from Oak Ave to Nectarine Ave, reflecting a settled community structure. To the east, the terrain is defined by the winding course of Bear Creek, which meanders through a network of wetlands and small water bodies. This 2024 survey documents the modern layout of the area, including the Oakes Municipal Airport and the transition across the Dickey Co and Sargent Co line. For those tracing local history or family lineage, the map provides precise locations for Saint Charles Cem and Oakes View Cem on the town's eastern outskirts, offering a clear record of these long-standing community landmarks.
