Garfield County

Garfield County is an administrative division in north-central Oklahoma with Enid as its main population center. The area encompasses extensive farmland where grain and other crops are grown throughout the seasons.

The area emerged in 1893 during a major land distribution event from the Cherokee Outlet region. It was named after a U.S. president who served in the late 1800s.

The region is shaped by agricultural traditions that define the landscape and daily life of its people. Grain farming plays a central role in local identity and shapes how communities see themselves.

Visitors can find main government offices in the courthouse located in downtown Enid. It is helpful to check ahead for information about services and operating hours.

An air force base shapes the economy and daily life through military and civilian employment. This presence has significantly influenced the region's development alongside agriculture.
