What it’s like
The place. Bluejacket is a very small town in Craig County, Oklahoma, where nearly everyone owns the home they live in. Incomes in the county are modest, and a good share of residents live below the poverty line, while typical home values sit at a level many would call within reach. Few adults hold a four-year degree, and some work from home. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month, and summers turn hot by August.
Work. Residents of Bluejacket work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with others in manufacturing, shops, and transport, warehouses and utilities. Across Craig County, the largest workplaces include Home of Hope, KAMO Power and Walmart. Unemployment in the county is a little higher than a year ago, and the number of jobs there slipped slightly last year.
Things to do. The Afton Station Packard Museum is a museum a short drive away. Farther afield, a longer drive brings you to Grand Lake o' the Cherokees, a reservoir, and to Spring River, a river good for time outdoors. Bernice State Park is another protected area a longer drive away.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Bluejacket’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 Craig County and the Miami, OK metro.
