Homes for Rent in Hobart, OK

Hobart in southwestern Oklahoma has grown from its “Ragtown” roots into the seat of Kiowa County, with a compact, active downtown and a mix of small-town amenities. Tree-lined streets near the center feature bungalows, Craftsman cottages, split-levels, farmhouses, New Traditionals and contemporary ranch-style homes with low-pitched roofs and large windows, while the edges of town transition to alfalfa, wheat and cattle fields. Elk Creek and Little Elk Creek can flood, and Kiowa County is in a tornado-prone area, with hot summers and chilly, mostly dry winters. Hobart Public Schools serves just over 700 students and is rated above average overall, with Kenneth O’Neal Middle earning a high rating and access to concurrent enrollment through Western Technology Center’s vocational programs in nearby communities. Recreation includes the 18-hole Hobart Municipal Golf Course, Biggers Park, Hunter Park and Exploration Station Park, plus the Hobart City Pool and an active public library with children’s programs. Annual events like Hometown Harvest Day on the Kiowa County Courthouse lawn and the Kiowa County Free Fair add seasonal attractions. Downtown Hobart has small shops, two full-size grocery stores, local restaurants such as Home Town Pizza and Big-A Burger Drive Inn, and museums including the Kiowa County Historical Museum and the General Tommy Franks Leadership Institute & Museum. Healthcare is available on the north side, with U.S. Route 183 connecting to Hobart Regional Airport about 5 miles away and to Interstate 40 toward Oklahoma City.
