Davis, Oklahoma

Davis is in Garvin and Murray counties, in South Central Oklahoma. The 2010 population was 2,683.

When your town is in two different counties, it is distinctly possible you and a neighbor pay two different county tax rates.

Davis was established in 1898. “By 1900, Davis had fifty-seven businesses, two banks, ten doctors, three dentists, and three lawyers. Cotton farming was a common occupation in Davis, which was in one of the best cotton producing sections in Oklahoma.”

There are good-size sand pits west of town.

For the romantically-inclined, Joy, Katie, Tussy, Velma and Purdy are not far away.
