Preston is an unincorporated community in Okmulgee County, Oklahoma, United States, located in the northeastern part of the state. Deriving its name from early settlers, it is sparsely populated and characterized by a rural atmosphere and tranquil environment. The area's economy has traditionally been based on agriculture and livestock, with farms and natural landscapes scattered around the area.
Preston's proximity to the city of Okmulgee, approximately 20 miles away, provides residents with easy access to city services. The community is surrounded by lakes and forest resources for outdoor activities such as fishing and hiking. Dating back to European immigrant settlement in the late 1800s, the community retains some remnants of early architecture reflecting Oklahoma's pioneer era character.
As a typical small central American community, Preston has a slow pace of life and a humid subtropical climate with four distinct seasons. Although it lacks significant tourist attractions, its simple atmosphere appeals to those seeking a quieter lifestyle and epitomizes the culture of rural America.
