What it’s like
The place. Davidson is a very small town in Tillman County, in the southwest corner of Oklahoma, where everyone is likely to know their neighbors. Homes here are inexpensive, well below what is typical across the country. Few adults hold a four-year degree, and almost no one works from home. Winters are mild and brief, summers get very hot, and the coldest days arrive in January.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with manufacturing, shops, and farming close behind. Across Tillman County, the largest workplaces include Henniges Automotive Oklahoma, a rubber goods manufacturer, along with Frederick Schools and Southwest Rural Electric Association. Jobs in the county have dipped slightly over the past year, and unemployment there is a little higher than it was a year earlier. Incomes in the county are modest.
Things to do. The Pease River and the North Fork Red River are both a short drive away, and make for quiet time by the water. A longer drive brings you to Lake Frederick, a reservoir, and to the Red River Valley Museum, which is the place to go for a look at the region's past. With so few people in town itself, outings tend to mean heading out into the surrounding countryside.

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