Victory is a small, unnamed community in Jackson County, Oklahoma, United States. An "unincorporated community" means it's a place where people live, but it doesn't have its own local government like a city or town. Instead, it's part of the larger county.
Victory is located about five miles west of a bigger city called Altus. It's also just one mile north of a major road, US Route 62. The Salt Fork Red River flows right past the east side of the community.
