The story of Willow

Oklahoma's ghost towns got it from both sides — oil booms that built them overnight and the Dust Bowl that emptied them.

Willow is a village in Greer County, Oklahoma, United States. The population was 119 as of the 2020 United States census. It is situated about 13 miles north of the county seat of Mangum, just west of the concurrent US Route 283 and Oklahoma State Highway 34.
