What it’s like
The place. Meno is a very small town in Major County, Oklahoma, where nearly every home is lived in by its owners. Typical home values are modest, and household incomes across the county run a little above what many rural places see. Winters are cold, with the coldest weather in January, and summers are hot, with July the warmest month and afternoons that get very warm indeed.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with others in farming, forestry and mining, manufacturing and shops. Across Major County, some of the largest workplaces are Fairview Schools, Fairview Hospital and Broce, which makes road construction and maintenance equipment. Jobs across the county dipped last year, and the typical commute is a fairly long one for a town this size.
Things to do. For time outdoors, Canton Lake and Salt Plains National Wildlife Refuge are both a longer drive away, one a lake and the other a protected area. Gloss Mountain State Park, also a longer drive, is another protected area. Those who prefer indoor outings can head to the Gaslight Theatre, a theatre that is likewise a longer drive from town.

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