The Village’s center stands about 1,220 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 1,130 ft to 1,280 ft, a difference of 150 ft: gently rolling country.
Under the town center the state geologic map shows Terrace Deposits (coarse-detrital, fine-detrital), from the Pleistocene, less than 2.6 million years old.
The section below crosses 8 rock units mapped at the surface.
Heights every 0.1 mile from the Copernicus GLO-90 surface model; vertical exaggeration about 56×. The colored band under the surface is the rock the state geologic map shows at the surface, not a picture of what lies beneath.
Sandstone, conglomerate. Age: Permian, 252 to 299 million years old. About 6 mi of the line.
Coarse-detrital, fine-detrital. Age: Pleistocene, less than 2.6 million years old. About 5 mi of the line.
Fine-detrital. Age: Holocene, less than 12,000 years old. About 3 mi of the line.
Shale, sandstone, siltstone. Age: Permian, 252 to 299 million years old. About 3 mi of the line.
Sandstone, conglomerate. Age: Permian, 252 to 299 million years old. About 3 mi of the line.
Shale. Age: Permian, 252 to 299 million years old. About 2 mi of the line.
From the USGS State Geologic Map Compilation (Horton and others, 2017), the states’ geologic maps joined at a common scale. 2 smaller units along the line are not listed.

A raindrop that lands in The Village reaches the Gulf of America by way of Chisholm Creek, Cottonwood Creek, the Cimarron, the Arkansas and the Mississippi: about 1,260 river miles.
Lakes on the way: Murray Lake and Ozark Lake.
600 miles of the trip are on the Mississippi.
Traced down the USGS NHDPlus V2.1 river network from the Census center point of The Village; river miles along the main stem, rounded.
The Village has a humid subtropical climate. Summer afternoons average 95° in July; winter nights fall to about 28° in January. About 31 inches of rain fall in a normal year.
On November 14 The Village normally reaches 62° and falls to 40°. The record high is 82°, in 2025; the record low 18°, in 2018. The most rain on this date, 0.20 in, fell in 2022.
