The Comanche Nation now numbers 13,000 persons, with more than half of them residing in this area of Southwest Oklahoma. The Comanche Nation Complex is located nine miles north of Lawton, Oklahoma, and offers many services for tribal members.

The Comanche signers, mostly Yamparikas, agreed to a joint reservation in western Oklahoma and to political confederation with the Kiowa and Plains Apache (the present Apache Tribe of Oklahoma); this confederation became known as the KCA. A joint KCA "tribal" business committee was established, although never fully formalized, in the late 1890s.
