What it’s like
The place. Crescent is a small city in Logan County, home to a fairly young population for a town of its size. Household incomes here run well below the county's, and more residents live below the poverty line than you might expect. Most homes are lived in by their owners, and typical home values are modest. Few adults hold a four-year degree.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, in professional and business services, and in the building trades. Across Logan County, some of the largest workplaces are Guthrie Schools, Langston University and Mercy Hospital Logan County. Commutes are on the longer side, and only a small number of people work from home. Unemployment in the county is a little higher than a year ago, while the number of jobs has edged up.
Things to do. Cottonwood Creek, a river, is a short drive away, and is the closest spot for time by the water. A longer drive brings you to Lake Hefner, a reservoir, or to the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum, one of the better-known museums in the region. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month, and summers are hot, so spring and fall are easy seasons for getting out.

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