Explore Empire City, Oklahoma, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Empire City, Oklahoma. 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 Oklahoma 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 Empire City.
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.

Empire City sits upon a stubborn expanse of red earth where the horizon pulls tight against the sky, defined primarily by the slow, rhythmic passage of Dry Creek as it carves its path through the prairie. It lies 6.9 miles southwest of Duncan, OK (from Duncan, OK: bearing 215°T), and is situated 16.2 miles south-southwest of Marlow. The air here holds the dry, metallic scent of iron-rich soil, and as the sun dips toward the edge of the world, the light turns a bruised, honeyed gold that catches the dust kicked up by the wind. To the north, the distant outline of Austin Ridge provides a jagged, blue-tinted anchor to the view, while the nearby Oknoname 137017 Reservoir offers a singular, still mirror for the passing clouds. The landscape remains largely open, characterized by the resilient grasses of the Cross Timbers that lean in unison whenever the gusts sweep across the plains.
Empire City carries the weight of a legacy forged in the early days of the oil boom, a time when the rhythmic clanking of derricks provided the pulse of the local economy. Much of the surrounding territory retains the quiet, expansive character of lands once held by the Comanche and other indigenous nations, a history that lingers in the silence between the gusts of wind. Agriculture and resource extraction remain the sturdy pillars of life, though the pace is dictated more by the seasons and the shifting weather than by the frantic churn of modern industry. Those who seek the wilder fringes of the landscape often venture toward the Waurika Wildlife Management Area, where the native flora and fauna thrive in a quietude that defines the enduring spirit of Empire City.

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.
