What it’s like
The place. Coleman is a very small community in Johnston County, Oklahoma, where neighbors are likely to know one another. Homes here are worth more than the county's incomes might suggest, since household incomes across Johnston County are modest. Very few adults hold a four-year degree, and hardly anyone works from home.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, followed by shops, manufacturing, and farming, forestry and mining. Across Johnston County, the largest workplaces include Murray State College, Mercy Hospital Tishomingo and the Coleman Schools. Unemployment across the county has risen over the past year, and there are fewer jobs than there were the year before.
Things to do. Fort McCulloch, the site of a Civil War fort, is a short drive away. Farther afield, Fort Washita is another historic fort, and Atoka Reservoir offers water and shoreline. Winters are cool, with the coldest weather in January, and summers get hot, especially in August, with a fair amount of rain and melted snow through the year.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Coleman’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. 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 Johnston County.
