The population was 93 at the 2010 census. The community was named for the fact it was the "gateway" to a ranching area.[3] GeographyGate is located at {{coord|36|51|7|N|100|3|21|W|type:city}} (36.851903, -100.055805).[4] According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of {{convert|0.2|sqmi|km2}}, all of it land. The Hangman's TreeThe area was a part of "No Man's Land" or the Oklahoma Panhandle, where no laws from other states could reach. Outlaws could commit crimes in Kansas or Texas, ride across the border and live protected from the laws. Violence, claim jumping, and thieving forced the honest settlers to form vigilance committees. Gate and Neutral City (Located about 5 miles west) had carved a niche in badman history with hot lead. Low regard for property and human life was rampart across this lawless land. Between Gate, Oklahoma and Neutral City, Oklahoma (The most wicked towns in No Man's Land) three trees grew, one of which had a low hanging branch. This branch was used in rendering the "hanging" punishment. The tree measured 15 ft. in circumference, is approximately 40 ft. tall, There is no record of how many were hanged on the tree but one man said he witnessed three of them at once. The accused was in place with a rope around his neck when one of men drew a line in the sand with the heel of his boot stating "If anyone objects let him step across the line." One man by the name of G. C. (Nease Maphet) stepped across the line.[5][6] Silica MineVolcanic ash is believed by geologists to have came from a volcano in north-central New Mexico. During the volcanic age immense quantities of materials were thrown out of these volcanoes near the opening in the earth and the ash or dust was carried by the prevailing winds and collected in depressions or drifts in the same manner that snow does. There is evidence in the deposits that settled here that the ash settled into a lake which accounts for the uniform quality of the main deposits became a hill. A canyon cut through the center of the deposit and exposed the deposit as cliffs. According to a certified analysis the Gate deposit is composed of 73% Silica, 14% Alumina and smaller amounts of iron, calcium, magnesium and alkali's.[5][6] Indian BattleThe hills on the south side are where the calvery took their stand. Buttons from uniforms and shells they used have been found there. One man told about the battle he was a part of that drove the renegade of Indians back to the reservation they were assigned.[5] Old GateIn 1886 with the establishment of a post office Gate City came to being. In 1894 an application was filed to move the post office for the 3rd time. It was moved 113 rods southeast to where several business were established and the name was changed to just Gate. Here Gate grew until the railroad came, in 1910. By this time Gate had 2 livery stables, a hotel, barber shop, pool hall, harness shop, grocery, real estate, hardware stores, bank, doctor's office and drug store, Masonic hall, numerous churches, furniture store, funeral home, bakery, U.S. Land office, millinery shop, lumber yard, two black smiths and a feed mill. When the railroad bypassed the town, the businessmen moved the town to the railroad, the present site of Gate.[7] Climate{{Weather box |location = Gate, Oklahoma |single line = Y |Jan record high F = |Feb record high F = |Mar record high F = |Apr record high F = |May record high F = |Jun record high F = |Jul record high F = |Aug record high F = |Sep record high F = |Oct record high F = |Nov record high F = |Dec record high F = |year record high F= |Jan high F = 46.3 |Feb high F = 51.5 |Mar high F = 60.4 |Apr high F = 71.3 |May high F = 79.3 |Jun high F = 89.6 |Jul high F = 95.4 |Aug high F = 93.3 |Sep high F = 84.5 |Oct high F = 74.2 |Nov high F = 59.2 |Dec high F = 48.4 |year high F= 71.1 |Jan low F = 18.5 |Feb low F = 23.2 |Mar low F = 31.2 |Apr low F = 43.1 |May low F = 53.2 |Jun low F = 63 |Jul low F = 68.1 |Aug low F = 66 |Sep low F = 57.7 |Oct low F = 44.4 |Nov low F = 31.6 |Dec low F = 21.6 |year low F= 43.5 |Jan record low F = |Feb record low F = |Mar record low F = |Apr record low F = |May record low F = |Jun record low F = |Jul record low F = |Aug record low F = |Sep record low F = |Oct record low F = |Nov record low F = |Dec record low F = |year record low F= |Jan precipitation inch = 0.6 |Feb precipitation inch = 0.8 |Mar precipitation inch = 1.7 |Apr precipitation inch = 1.8 |May precipitation inch = 3 |Jun precipitation inch = 2.9 |Jul precipitation inch = 2.4 |Aug precipitation inch = 2.9 |Sep precipitation inch = 2.1 |Oct precipitation inch = 1.4 |Nov precipitation inch = 1.1 |Dec precipitation inch = 0.7 |year precipitation inch= 21.5 |Jan snow inch = |Feb snow inch = |Mar snow inch = |Apr snow inch = |May snow inch = |Jun snow inch = |Jul snow inch = |Aug snow inch = |Sep snow inch = |Oct snow inch = |Nov snow inch = |Dec snow inch = |year snow inch= |Jan humidity= |Feb humidity= |Mar humidity= |Apr humidity= |May humidity= |Jun humidity= |Jul humidity= |Aug humidity= |Sep humidity= |Oct humidity= |Nov humidity= |Dec humidity= |year humidity= |unit rain days= |Jan rain days= |Feb rain days= |Mar rain days= |Apr rain days= |May rain days= |Jun rain days= |Jul rain days= |Aug rain days= |Sep rain days= |Oct rain days= |Nov rain days= |Dec rain days= |year rain days= |source 1 = weather.com |source 2 = Weatherbase.com [8] |date=October 2, 2010 }} Demographics{{US Census population|1910= 958 |1920= 309 |1930= 307 |1940= 243 |1950= 197 |1960= 130 |1970= 151 |1980= 146 |1990= 159 |2000= 112 |2010= 93 |estyear=2015 |estimate=90 |estref=[9] |footnote=U.S. Decennial Census[10] }} As of the census[1] of 2000, there were 112 people, 47 households, and 33 families residing in the town.
