2016 Map of Okemah

About this map

The North Canadian River flows through the southern portion of this region, providing a natural boundary near the community of Bearden. The landscape is defined by the city of Okemah, where the street grid includes a thoroughfare named Woody Guthrie Blvd, honoring the folk singer's birthplace. The town's aviation history is visible at the Okemah Flying Field and nearby Airport Lake, while the surrounding rural area is dotted with numerous small family and community burial grounds including the Wind Family Cem, Foster Cem, and Harjo Cem. To the north and west, the terrain is shaped by several tributaries such as Buckeye Cr and Yhola Cr, along with numerous engineered water bodies like Oknoname 107035 Reservoir. Smaller settlements like Greenleaf sit along the section roads, illustrating the persistent rural network of Okfuskee County.
