How to Use This Oakwood Park, Missouri Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Oakwood Park, Missouri. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Missouri or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Oakwood Park.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

ZIP code: 64118.Oakwood Park emerges from the Missouri landscape as a quiet confluence of woodland and prairie, defined primarily by the persistent, winding course of East Creek. It lies 1.0 miles west of Gladstone, MO (from Gladstone, MO: bearing 268°T), and is situated 7.2 miles north of Kansas City. Beyond the immediate banks, the terrain stretches into a series of modest elevations that soften toward the horizon, where the distant, hazy silhouette of Badger Ridge anchors the view. The local air carries a crisp, terrestrial weight, particularly at dusk when the light turns a bruised violet and settles over the open fields. Flora Park serves as the immediate green lung for Oakwood Park, offering a managed expanse of native grasses and hardwood stands that provide a sanctuary for local fauna and a stillness that permeates the surrounding residential lanes.
Economic life in Oakwood Park remains tethered to the rhythms of the regional agricultural cycle and the modest trade that follows the flow of traffic through the interior plains. The history of the settlement is etched in the utilitarian architecture of the older storefronts and the sturdy, unadorned homes that have weathered generations of Midwestern winters. Residents often venture toward the nearby Zajic Lake for recreation, a body of water that acts as a reflective mirror for the shifting cloud patterns above the basin. While the bustle of larger urban centers remains distant, the character of the locality is defined by a grounded, plain-spoken resilience, a pragmatic sensibility that values the slow change of seasons over the frantic pace of external industry. The legacy of French Bottom remains a whispered reference point in the regional geography, grounding the area in a deeper, older sense of place that persists even as the modern day moves forward.

About This Oakwood Park Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Oakwood Park, Missouri. Coordinates: 39.203336, -94.573844. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.
Detailed location data for Oakwood Park includes the ZIP code (64118), telephone area code (816), county seat of Clay County (Liberty), and school district assignment (North Kansas City 74 School District).
Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
