Welcome to Mooreland…a quiet, friendly community where you can still take a walk, and feel safe while you’re doing it. Mooreland, a town which has five churches and is known for a strong school system, is located along the Santa Fe main line and smack dab in the middle of the oil industry.

Mooreland is well known for its fine school system housed in an elementary school for pre-school through sixth grade in the north part of town and junior-senior high school for ninth through 12th grade in the south.

Mooreland has outstanding fire and police departments and a modern City Hall located on Main Street. The city provides water and utilities and owns its own electrical system. Woodward County District No. 1 offices and yard are also located within the city limits.
