Hough is a small unincorporated rural community in Texas County, Oklahoma, United States, north-northwest of Guymon. The population was 20 at the time of the 2020 census.
History
The townsite was officially platted on July 20, 1928. The Beaver, Meade and Englewood Railroad built through the area in the 1929-1930 timeframe, and Hough was purposely sited along its route. That trackage was abandoned in 1972, but the Hough Woodframe Elevator, which was situated along the tracks, still exists and is on the National Register of Historic Places listings in Texas County, Oklahoma.
