How to Use This Stratford, Oklahoma Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Stratford, 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 Stratford.

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.

Stratford occupies a quiet expanse of the Oklahoma plains, where the persistent flow of Spring Brook Creek traces a meandering path through the earth. It lies 16.0 miles west of Ada, OK (from Ada, OK: bearing 276°T), and is situated 15.4 miles east-northeast of Pauls Valley. The landscape holds a particular clarity in the shifting light of late afternoon, when the horizon seems to stretch indefinitely across the red dirt and sparse vegetation of the Cross Timbers. To the south, the distant silhouette of the Arbuckle Mountains anchors the view, providing a steady, earthen weight to a sky that often feels vast and unencumbered. Residents often look toward the nearby Sandy Creek Site 27 Reservoir, a body of water that offers a calm, reflective stillness against the surrounding prairie grasses. Beyond the immediate reach of the town, the topography dips into the subtle depressions of Dry Hollow, where the land reveals a modest, rhythmic complexity in its otherwise level terrain.

Stratford carries the weight of a long tenure in the former Indian Territory, a history felt in the enduring persistence of its people and the quiet hum of its agricultural life. The economy remains rooted in the character of the soil and the legacy of the surrounding oil-patch, reflecting a resilience forged through generations of labor. While the Santa Fe Train Depot stands fifteen miles away as a lingering reminder of the rail lines that once dictated the pulse of commerce, the pace of life here is now defined by the slow, deliberate work of the fields and the local industry. There is a distinct, unhurried quality to the afternoons in Stratford, where the wind carries the dry, earthen scent of the plains and the daily habits of the inhabitants follow the steady, predictable cycle of the seasons.

About This Stratford Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Stratford, Oklahoma. Coordinates: 34.79675, -96.959464. 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 Stratford includes the ZIP code (74872), telephone area code (918), county seat of Garvin County (Pauls Valley), and school district assignment (Stratford Public Schools).

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.
