Sequoyah County had an estimated population of 40,842 on July 1, 2025, compared with a 2020 Census population of 39,281. The Census Bureau reports a 4.0% population increase from the 2020 estimate base through July 2025.

Safety & Crime

City-level 2024 FBI crime data for Gore recorded 2 violent-crime incidents and 3 property-crime incidents. The corresponding reported rates were approximately 201.2 violent crimes and 301.8 property crimes per 100,000 residents.

These figures describe reported city-level incidents rather than conditions at this property or in its immediate surroundings. Because Gore has a small population base, a small change in the number of reported incidents can produce a substantial change in the calculated rate from year to year.

Zillow’s May 2026 housing-market data for Gore reported a typical home value of $194,394 and a 5.3% one-year change. Market coverage and methodology differ among housing-data providers, so these figures are best used as general local market context.
