What it’s like
The place. Hammon is a very small town in western Oklahoma, with a younger population than many rural places and a settled feel: most homes are lived in by their owners. A four-year degree is held by fewer adults than is typical, and more households live below the poverty line than in most places. Winters are cold but mild enough that snow is light, summers are hot, and the year brings a moderate amount of rain and melted snow.
Work. Across Roger Mills County, jobs have become somewhat fewer over the past year, though unemployment remains low and has edged up only slightly. Residents work mainly in farming, forestry and mining, in schools, hospitals and social care, and in professional and business services, with some in restaurants, hotels and entertainment. The largest workplaces across the county are Roger Mills Memorial Hospital, a critical access hospital, and school districts such as Cheyenne Schools and Hammon Schools.
Things to do. The closest outdoor stop is Washita National Wildlife Refuge, a protected area a short drive away. A longer drive leads to Washita Battlefield National Historic Site, a protected area, and to Foss Reservoir, a reservoir where people go for time on the water. The Washita River, also a longer drive away, offers another place to spend a day outdoors.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Hammon’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, very 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 Roger Mills County and the Weatherford, OK metro.
