What it’s like
The place. Mangum is a small city in southwestern Oklahoma and the seat of Greer County. Most homes here are lived in by their owners, and the typical home costs less than in much of the country. Residents tend to be younger than the typical American, though incomes run below the county's.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, with government, professional and business services, and restaurants and hotels also employing a good number. Mangum Schools, Mangum Regional Medical Center and Mangum Skilled Nursing and Therapy are among the largest workplaces in town. Commutes are short, and few people work from home.
Things to do. Within a longer drive are Quartz Mountain Nature Park, a protected area, and Lake Altus-Lugert, a lake good for time on the water. Sayre City Park is another park a longer drive away, and Devil's Canyon is an archaeological site for those who like history. Winters are cold but bring little snow, and summers are hot.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Mangum’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 Greer County.
