I am an Oklahoma girl and it is a great place to live. I am from Shawnee which is about 30 miles east of Oklahoma City. Small town where everyone knows and cares about each other. I miss that small town feeling where 15 people will show up to help you move. My family still lives in Shawnee and I will move back on of these days. It's true ~ there's not alot of opportunity career wise. If you make 10 dollars an hour you better keep that job but it's a family oriented place and I have never met nicer people in any other state. When I moved to Dallas my brother was ridding in the car with me and he kept telling me "Quite waving at everyone!" I didn't even realize that I was. I told him you can take the girl out of Oklahoma but you can't take Oklahoma out of the girl! Go Sooners!!!
