Our Community
Woodward is rapidly becoming the state’s hub for sustainable energy as 38,000 megawatts of wind generation is currently being developed in the rolling grasslands of Northwest Oklahoma. With a 345 kV transmission line recently completed by OG&E that will link these facilities to Oklahoma City, and an additional 765 kV transmission project proposed to bring even more capacity online across the Oklahoma panhandle and Kansas, these new ventures will help power America’s future with clean, renewable energy.
Over the past 122 years our community has stood witness to the coming of the railroad, cattle drives, two land rushes, Indian Wars, gun fights, colorful characters, natural disasters, the birth of the Oklahoma Oil Industry, good times and bad.
Modern day Woodward has grown to a population of nearly 15,000 with the county seat serving as a commercial center for 70,000 residents in the tri-state area.
Woodward is building on the past and moving forward into a bright future!
