About this map

Paden serves as the primary hub for this portion of Okfuskee County, situated near the western boundary where the terrain meets Lincoln Co. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of drainage and water management, featuring creeks such as Pettiquah Creek and Hilliby Cr, alongside numerous numbered reservoirs like the Okfuskee Tributaries Hilliby Cr Site H-6 Reservoir. These water bodies suggest a rural economy focused on land and water conservation during the early 21st century.

Local history is preserved in sites like Oakdale Cem and Micawber Cem, providing essential locations for genealogical research in this rural Oklahoma corridor. The settlement of Midway and the recreation areas at Paden Lake and Paden Lake Number 2 further characterize the community structure. The grid of section roads, including W Deer Creek Rd and N Old 52nd Rd, provides a clear view of the area's development and land use patterns.
