What it’s like
The place. Ringwood is a very small town in Major County, Oklahoma, where nearly everyone lives in a home they own. Household incomes sit a little below the county's, and few residents live below the poverty line. Winters are cold, with January highs staying well under the point where the day feels mild, while July brings hot afternoons.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with farming, forestry and mining, manufacturing and shops also employing many. Few adults hold a four-year degree, and almost no one works from home. Across Major County, the largest workplaces include Fairview Schools, Fairview Hospital and Broce, a maker of road construction and maintenance equipment, and there were fewer jobs last year than the year before.
Things to do. The best-known places nearby are a longer drive away. Salt Plains National Wildlife Refuge is a protected area of open land, Canton Lake is a lake for time on the water, and Gloss Mountain State Park is a state park for getting outdoors. Each is a trip rather than an errand, so it suits a day out.

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