Olney pairs small-town pace with surprising industry and access. A proud community in Young County, it’s best known as the home of Air Tractor, where iconic agricultural aircraft are designed and built beside Olney Municipal Airport. Day to day, residents plug into city services, parks, and seasonal events through the City of Olney, while downtown storefronts and local eateries supply the everyday essentials.
Families appreciate the strong, close-knit schools in the Olney Independent School District, where academics, arts, and Friday night athletics bring the town together. Health needs are met close to home at Olney Hamilton Hospital, a trusted resource with emergency care and specialty clinics.
Weekends here can be as quiet or as active as you like. Cast a line at nearby lakes, tour frontier history at Fort Belknap, or head to Graham for festivals and shopping. Bigger-city amenities, college sports, and cultural events are an easy trip north in Wichita Falls, and continuing education is close by at Midwestern State University.
Whether you’re drawn by aviation jobs, wide-open skies, or schools where teachers know your kids by name, Olney offers room to grow with genuine Texas hospitality and practical convenience.
