About this map

Weatherford dominates the landscape of Custer County in this 2012 survey, centered on the sprawling campus of Southwestern Oklahoma State Univ. The town's grid expands outward from the core, with residential and commercial streets such as W Main St and E Davis Ave providing the primary east-west structure. To the east, the Thomas P Stafford Airport marks a significant aeronautical landmark, while the surrounding rural lands are divided by a rigorous section-line road system.

North of the city, the curious name of Dead Women Crossing appears near Deer Cr, hinting at local lore or historical events. Genealogical interest is anchored by Greenwood Cem near the university and the more isolated Bradley Cem to the north. Water features like Little Deep Cr and Sportsman Lake indicate the importance of managed water resources in this prairie environment, where agriculture and academic growth intersect.
