Oklahoma Living, has failed to inform you that some areas mentioned have Hurricanes and or Tornadoes. I live in Oklahoma but, I live in a town called Tahlequah, we do not get Hurricanes or Tornadoes. The main reason is we are in a valley and Hurricanes and Tornadoes go over valleys never down valleys. Another plus, to living in Oklahoma is if you are a 100% disabled Veteran you do not pay property tax, nor sales tax, no license fees etc, no hunting license fees etc. THANK YOU STATE OF OKLAHOMA FOR HONORING OUR DISABLED VETERANS.
that sounds wonderful, we live in Kinta OK and it is a valley surrounded by mountains and we rarely gt tornado's but that is the only part of OK i don''t like. other wise i love it here. this is home and the best place to live in the world.
@@gasspacc9158 No I am a retire non Cherokee. But, I love Tahlequah, it has become my home. I do have Cherokees on my street and they are the friendliness compared to where I live in Texas before moving here. I'm not moving.
# 5 was mostly OKC with a few shots of Edmond. Edmond's tallest building is a grain tower. Enid, OK is not a suburb of OKC The fastest rout is 101 miles, the shortest is 86.7 miles. I won't even talk about cost of living. Okay I will it is boom or bust you ether have a good paying job or you don't. 2 years ago I was making 68K, blew my back out in a motor vehicle accident, now I get 29K.
Your big mistake makes me doubt the overall information. Enid is NOT a suburb of OKC, it is an hour and 18 minutes from Edmond, which is an actual suburb of OKC.
So Enid is the #1 place to live in the whole state of Oklahoma? This is news to me.. and a couple of the photos didn't even match the towns you were describing. Something is very weird here.
Wow I like it you should make a RUclips of Top 5 Best places to visit Missouri I wanna know so if your free make a RUclips about Top 5 Best places to visit Missouri
The only reason Enid is considered to be a good place to live is because the economy is striving because of the air force base and soldiers spend money
I grew up in Enid in 70s and 80s it was the best. But then they closed the racetrack , go carts, movie theater and leveled the water park. The dragging Van Buren thing they are doin is pretty cool. David Allen ballpark is nice....but really Enid could do a lot more for entertainment. Not number 1. Maybe number 6 or 7
I don't agree with this evaluation. I live in Edmond. It is a good place to live but housing costs you quote are extremely low. I know less about housing prices in the other cities featured but I know enough to know your prices quotes for rent are also well below the reality of what is charged.
Enid is not a suburb of Oklahoma City...... I live in Enid, it's about an hour and a half from Oklahoma City. Definitely not in the OKC Metro lol. Nice video though!
@@nopenope5398 Well Enid might be boring but it is a good place to live. The crime rate is low so it’s safe, the schools and college is decent and there’s a lot of good people
@@AWT5020 low crime rate is dependent on your perspective, as at one point Enid was the meth capital of the country and since then a couple of other places have surpassed Enid but it's still in the top 25, for the school system as I mentioned in previous comment eps only care is if a student shows up, the school board has no concern about actually teaching, the majority of teachers and support staff are good at their job but the problem is from within the school board of directors, policy makers, and administration. Then we have the issue of city council spending millions of dollars on useless decorations and projects the residents of Enid voted against such as the hotel downtown that tax payers dollars are being paid to cover the ludacris contract minimum occupancy rate instead of using the funding for projects that are worth while such as infrastructure repair and upgrades, building a second high school so that students have classrooms big enough for everyone to have a proper desk, hiring extra campus police to get the obscene amount of drug possession and drug usage eliminated from within our schools. We have students dropping acid and smoking various other substances in the classrooms and bathrooms and are told there is no way to pay for more campus police but yet the city council can pay a so called artist to use sheet metal and cut out a bunch of cows and horses and charge the city several thousand dollars for each of them.
@@nopenope5398 I understand all that. But Enid still has a low crime rate regardless, It’s been proven. Enid had the lowest crime in the state in 2020. The school systems offer quite a bit to new students. They might not care about the actual teaching, but they offer a lot. Enid does use the money toward useless things. But Enid still is a decent place to live. We have the necessities we need to live, here so we don’t have to go to other places to get it. I’d rather live here in Enid than some other decent sized places in the state. Like Lawton, Chickasha, Shawnee, Tulsa
@@AWT5020 what are you considering crime? Enid is at 22.2 for violent crime which is .5 below national average of 22.7 so in that regard Enid is slightly lower than national average for violent crime...but has a score of 55.2 for property crime which the national average is 35.4. so while you are slightly less likely to be a victim of a violent crime in Enid, you are considerably more likely to be a victim of a property crime. The reason for that fact is the sheer number of tweaked out drug addicts that our police force and judicial system routinely ignores and let's them walk free to steal and damage other people's property so they can get their next score.
Ponca City and Enid's total appeal is their legacy to the past with oil men like EW Marland, Lew Wentz, and the Champlain family. Sadly, they are long gone and the robust economies that their companies provided are as well. Born in Enid, raised in Ponca City. Finished HS in Edmond. Edmond, Broken Arrow and Bixby are nice but are basically just the desirable suburbs of OKC and Tulsa.
How to say you’ve never been to Oklahoma without actually saying it lol 😂 Enid is a suburb of OKC lol 😂 I just about sprayed my drink out of my nose on that one 😏
Bixby is NOT in Wagner county. The whole of Bixby is in southern Tulsa county. You might try doing a little research before you make your video and commentary.
Your video is far from the truth about Enid, there is one "trail" to experience which is nothing but a paved sidewalk, the parks are in disrepair, the streets are among the worst in the state, the average rent in our town is not anywhere close to 860/month as I pay 1300 for my house which is slightly better than a shack, the majority of people do not own their home as this town is full of slumlords who buy every house they can get their grimy hands on then put the absolute minimum amount of work and money to rent them out for over 1000 a month, you failed to mention the corruption of city council and police force, the population is not a close community, the public school system cares only about attendance instead of learning, your video of Enid shows the Devin building which is located in Oklahoma City between downtown and bricktown which is about 120 miles away from Enid city limits, Enid is not a suburb of any city we are located in the middle of northwest nowhere. Honestly your representation of everything about Enid is completely the opposite of truth and this is coming from a 30+ year Enid resident.
I do not live there but have been there for periods of time numerous times. I share many of your thoughts about the place. I’ve seen much worse in my times, but I’ve watched this town fall further and further into disrepair.
You need to blog. I live in Nashville. Your comment is so great I read it out loud to my husband. All of my family is from OKC so we are talking about moving to Edmond. I’m sorry things suck in Enid. I’m originally from So.Cal. I can go on a rant when somebody tries to sell it. It was the Golden State when I was a kid. It’s a sewer now.
@@JamalKhan-tr6iz Thank you! You're so kind. I appreciate that. I'm very excited to live there and to experience all the amazing things that Edmond Oklahoma has to offer =)
Lawton has so much crime and Homeless and deteriorating neighborhoods and the city doesn't fix residential neighborhood streets, you would be better off moving to a small town.
It's sure not Lawton, Crime, medical Marijuana shops on every corner if not two,they raise water rates from $63.00 a month to $90.00 and over a month. Homeless holding up signs and sleeping on store fronts , and gangbangers running the streets. So It's not the best place to live.
