2012 Map of Wakita

About this map

Wakita serves as the primary hub of this northern Oklahoma agricultural landscape, with a clearly defined street grid featuring thoroughfares such as W Main St, E Main St, and N Oak St. The surrounding terrain in Grant County is dominated by the section-line road system, forming a vast lattice that supports the region's wheat and cattle farms. The small community of Gibbon is situated to the northwest, accompanied by the Gibbon Cem, a vital site for local genealogical research. The subtle drainage of Duel Cr meanders across the southern plains, providing a rare natural break in the geometric regularity of the county's township-and-range layout. This 2012 survey documents the enduring spatial organization of these prairie settlements a century after their founding.
