The population was 236 at the 2010 census. It is known locally for its near-annihilation during the deadly Tri-State Tornado of 1925. GeographyGorham is located at {{coord|37|43|1|N|89|29|9|W|type:city}} (37.716897, -89.485804).[2] According to the 2010 census, Gorham has a total area of {{convert|1.231|sqmi|sqkm|2}}, of which {{convert|1.22|sqmi|sqkm|2}} (or 99.11%) is land and {{convert|0.011|sqmi|sqkm|2}} (or 0.89%) is water.[3] Gorham is located in the middle of the Mississippi River floodplain, which is among the most fertile farming regions in the Midwestern United States. The village is at a particularly low elevated region of the floodplain known as the "Bottoms". This makes it more susceptible to flooding, as it was threatened in the infamous Great Flood of 1993 and the New Year's Day Flood of 2016. Less than one mile south of Gorham is a large hill named Fountain Bluff. Though the bluff is not exceptionally well-known, its rock faces do attract occasional rock-climbers. Etched into cliffs on the north side of this landform are several Native American petroglyphs.
