What it’s like
The place. Thackerville is a very small town in Love County, Oklahoma, close to the Texas line. Homes here are valued below what is typical for many parts of the country, and few adults hold a four-year degree. Winters are cool and mostly mild, with only a little snow, and summers get quite hot. Rain falls through much of the year.
Work. Many residents work in restaurants, hotels and entertainment, followed by schools, hospitals and social care, shops and manufacturing. Across Love County, the largest workplaces include Mercy Health/Love County, a critical access hospital, along with Legends Global, a food service and concession operator, and the Marietta Schools. Unemployment in the county is a little higher than a year ago, and there were fewer jobs last year than the year before. Commutes are short, and very few people work from home.
Things to do. Leeper Lake is a lake a short drive away, and it is the closest spot for time on the water. Farther afield, Lake Murray is a lake a longer drive away, and Hagerman National Wildlife Refuge is a protected area a longer drive away that suits a day of looking at birds and open country. The Frank Buck Zoo is also a longer drive away for a family outing.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Thackerville’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 Love County and the Ardmore, OK metro.
