2016 Map of Oklee

About this map

Oklee serves as the primary center of activity in this northern Minnesota landscape, situated at the boundary of Red Lake and Polk counties. The town's grid is clearly defined by streets like Main St, Oak St, and Governor St, reflecting a community organized around its proximity to the Lost River and agricultural infrastructure like Elevator Rd. The surrounding countryside reveals a heavily managed hydrological system, where natural waterways are augmented by a complex network of engineered channels including Judicial Ditch Number Seventyone and County Ditch Number Eightyseven. Local genealogy and history are preserved at the Zion Cem to the north and Saint Francis Xavier Cem to the south. The transition from the flat agricultural plains toward the more varied terrain near the Hill River in the south illustrates the local geography of the Red River Valley's eastern edge.
