Moffett, Oklahoma

Moffett is a town in Sequoyah County, Oklahoma, United States.

It is part of the Fort Smith, Arkansas-Oklahoma Metropolitan Statistical Area.

Before and during World War II, the town's bars and gambling establishments attracted soldiers from nearby Fort Smith, Arkansas and Camp Chaffee.

The U.S. Army declared Moffett "off limits" during the war, and kept the ban in place until the mid-1970s.

Without the steady stream of citation revenue generated from motorists passing through on U.S. Highway 64, the town was unable to manage the $200,000 in debts incurred by the former mayor.

[5] According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 0.1 square miles (0.26 km2), all land.

Country artist Charlie Walker released a song called Moffett, Oklahoma on his 1967 album Don't Squeeze My Sharmon.
