Oklahoma County as a whole had 24,877 employer establishments in 2023 and another 74,582 nonemployer businesses, the one-person shops and independent contractors that often have no website at all. Oklahoma County has far more than the national share of oil and gas producers: 224 of them in the 2023 count.

Harrah’s working residents are concentrated in education, health care and social assistance (20.7%) and public administration (15.5%).
