Should you really move to Oklahoma City? Is this someplace you'd like to call home? In this video, I'll walk you through 6 things you should be aware of if you are thinking about moving to Oklahoma City OK. Despite this list, there are a ton of ADVANTAGES to living here. The FRIENDLY PEOPLE and LOW COST OF LIVING are major draws for many. I've lived here my entire life and wouldn't ever consider leaving. That said, for those thinking about moving here from say the West or East Coast, living in Oklahoma City can result in a bit of culture shock. In the name of full transparency, and so no one is totally taken by surprise and regrets their decision to call OKC home, I made this video to give you the straight scoop on what to expect when living in Oklahoma. Forewarned is forearmed as the saying goes so here are a few things you need to be aware of---BEFORE you decide to move here...No editorial comments here, but rather just stating the facts for your review...
OK IS A RED STATE, PLAIN & SIMPLE
Kicking off the list, you should probably know that Conservative values and politics dominate the landscape here--that probably won't come as a surprise to most, but I thought I should mention it nonetheless. For the most part, Republicans currently occupy most of the more prominent elected positions, including our Governor, our U.S. Senators, and all of our U.S. Congressmen and Congresswomen.
PUBLIC SCHOOLS IN OKC AREA ARE JUST OK
Our public school systems in the area are for the most part pretty average. That said, there are a number of very high-performing districts in the area with Edmond, Deer Creek, Piedmont, Mustang, Moore, and Norman School Districts all coming to mind
ALLERGY SUFFERERS BE WARNED!
Seasonal allergies here can be a real pain to deal with--as I can personally attest. Pollen is apparently produced here year-round and based on my personal experience, I believe it.
THE OIL & GAS INDUSTRY DOMINATES
Oklahoma City's economy is disproportionately weighted toward businesses that revolve around oil & gas.
A CAR IS A NECESSITY
OKC is so spread out that unfortunately, it's almost imperative that you have a car to get around. ..
SEVERE WEATHER IS A FACT OF LIFE
Yes, we have tornadoes from time to time in the Spring as well as the occasional hail storm. In winter, we also tend to get more ice than accumulating snow in rare instances. Hey, at least we say we get to experience 4 seasons of weather...
The things mentioned here aren't really all that bad--not even close! It is what it is and the positives of Oklahoma City far outweigh the negatives. Give us a call today and let's talk!
