The U.S. Army post bordering Lawton to the north.

Living in Fort Sill area

Living close to post, on it or just outside it.

Fort Sill is the home of the Army's Fires Center of Excellence, where field artillery and air defense artillery soldiers train. Families arriving on orders choose between privatized on-post housing and living off post in Lawton or one of the towns around it.

If you're buying off post, the question I start with is which gate you'll use most. Gate hours and closures change from time to time, so check the post's current information before you plan a commute around one.

What's here

  • Several gates into post from the Lawton side, including Key Gate off I-44 and Bentley Gate on Sheridan Road
  • North Lawton neighborhoods along Fort Sill Boulevard, Sheridan Road, and Rogers Lane
  • Quick access to I-44
  • Lake Elmer Thomas Recreation Area on post

Off post, the closest neighborhoods are in north and northwest Lawton. Elgin to the northeast and Cache to the west are the two towns families most often compare them with.

Schools

School assignment depends on the exact address, so confirm it with the district before you buy. The state publishes a report card for every public school at Oklahoma School Report Cards.

Getting to Fort Sill

Drive time depends on the gate you use and the time of day, and gate hours change. The reliable way to check is to map it from a specific address at the hour you'd be driving.
