2018 Map of Oxford

About this map

The confluence of the Arkansas River and Ninnescah River anchors this study of the eastern edge of Sumner County. The town of Oxford serves as the primary hub, showing a traditional street grid and proximity to the Oxford Cem. To the north, the small settlements of Whitman and Bushnell occupy the agricultural plains near the Cowley County line. The landscape is defined by its water management and drainage, with features like the Mill Race and numerous creeks such as Antelope Cr and Lost Cr cutting through the sectioned farmland. The transition from the river bottomlands to the surrounding plateaus is traced through a dense network of county roads like N Oxford Rd and Geuda Springs Rd, illustrating the intersection of natural hydrology and rural development in southern Kansas.
