What it’s like
The place. Aline is a very small town in Woods County, in the farm country of northwestern Oklahoma, with few residents and a quiet, spread-out feel. Household incomes run well above the county's, and typical home values sit at a level many homeowners would find modest. Winters are cold, with some snow, and summers are hot, so the year has a clear shape from one season to the next.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, and a good number work in farming, forestry and mining, with others in shops, restaurants and hotels. Across Woods County, some of the largest workplaces are Northwestern Oklahoma State University, Walmart and Share Medical Center. Few adults here hold a four-year degree, and the county had fewer jobs last year than the year before, though unemployment there has stayed low.
Things to do. For time outdoors, the Medicine Lodge River is a river a longer drive away, and Canton Lake is a lake that is also a longer drive away. Salt Plains National Wildlife Refuge is a protected area a longer drive away as well, a place for walking and watching wildlife. Plan on a trip rather than an errand to reach any of them.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Aline’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively high. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Woods County.
