Small-town life with commercial culture

With the water tower rising over the buildings, Crescent is a small town with charm and community. The Frontier County Museum highlights Crescent’s history, dating back to the pioneer days, with a traditional one-room schoolhouse and a Baptist church. Along North Grand Street, many shops are housed in historical buildings. Even though Crescent seems tucked away into a slice of history, businesses bring new life to the town.

Coffee and bookstores in the historic downtown

Rise Coffee House regularly updates its menu with seasonal drinks and daily specials. The old-fashioned letterboard outside points to the café and shouts out local happenings. El Palmo Mexican Restaurant’s menu lists popular Mexican and American options. Paper Pages Bookstore is located in Crescent’s oldest building and offers several book clubs tailored to local tastes and interests. At the Frontier County Museum, locals can learn about the town’s and region’s history and tour restored and preserved historic buildings. Crescent is home to several convenience stores, like Lee’s Easy Stop and Earnheart Quick Stop. Hometown Foods is Crescent’s grocery store, but the Crescent Marketplace brings local produce to residents at its outdoor pavilion.

Celebrate the arts in Crescent

For the past eight years, the Crescent Arts Festival has brought colors and creativity to the town. Taking place in the city park, the festival offers live music and dance performances alongside art vendors and activities. There is also a 5k color run, where locals can race through vibrant hues. All proceeds from the festival go to supporting Crescent Schools’ arts programs and takes place at the middle school.

Crescent public schools and sports

For pre-kindergarten through fifth grade, students attend Crescent Elementary School, which earns a B from Niche. Middle school students can take classes on agriculture at Crescent Middle School, ranked B-minus by Niche. Awarded a B from Niche, Crescent High School has an active athletic culture and offers several sports for students, like football, baseball, cheer, basketball and golf.

Play ball at Crescent City Park

Crescent’s only park is Crescent City Park, which offers two playgrounds for kids. The baseball diamond has bleachers for onlookers and supporters. Nearby is a pavilion for the sunny days. At the park, there’s a mural with words that highlight Crescent’s culture: Small town looks good on you!

Driving around Crescent and beyond

North Grand runs down the center of Crescent and houses most of the town’s stores and restaurants. Out of town, Grand becomes 74, connecting the town to bigger cities. Wide sidewalks in the historic center make walking through the downtown possible, but residents will likely need cars to get to and from their homes and the town center or to amenities beyond the town limits. Guthrie sits just 15 miles to the southeast, providing more commercial options and a busy event calendar. Crescent is about 38 miles from Oklahoma City, giving locals a taste of rural Oklahoma.
