About this map

Stephens serves as the central hub for this portion of southern Arkansas, where a landscape defined by resource extraction meets local aviation. The town sits at the intersection of various local routes such as Tidwell St and Hillside St, surrounded by a significant network of energy production sites including the Stephens Oil and Gas Field and the Wesson Oil and Gas Field. The industrial character of the region is further evidenced by the Stephens-Ouachita County Airport and the smaller Wilson Airport to the north.

Water plays a critical role in the local geography, with Smackover Creek and Little Smackover Creek drainage systems shaping the terrain. To the north, Ogemaw appears as a smaller settlement near the banks of Cypress Creek. Local recreational and utility water bodies are prominent throughout the area, including Graysons Lake, Hassics Lake, and Brigham Lake, each supported by their respective dams.
