2016 Map of Oakfield

About this map

Oakfield serves as the primary hub in this Genesee County landscape, where the local economy is shaped by the transition from fertile farmland to the sprawling wetlands of the north. The map documents an intricate network of drainage and conservation, highlighted by the Oak Orchard Swamp and Galloway Swamp, which dominate the northern and eastern reaches. These marshlands, including Schmidt Marsh and the Lower Stafford Marsh, are historically significant for their role in regional water management and wildlife habitat.
