^^That's my thought also. Covid may just be a handy reason.I don't blame the Sheriff's for that.....What Chicago got themselves into they can work their way out (if they wise up)....what are the odds
Isn't that the truth. Not a single shift goes by at work that I don't meet at least a couple families moving here and quite a few more "checking the place out" ...
When they pay people $10,000 to move to Tulsa and work remotely, we will see the same thing. And we’ll lose the affordability factor. That million dollars won’t last near as long.I'm sure our time is coming, lots and lots of out of state plates here.
As a Cali refugee, you should be.Concerning. I don't want to be skeptical of people moving here, but part of me is. I have no interest in going purple, or worse.
That's what doesn't process for me. Our cost of living and people IMO are what made OK great. But cities and the State are always about maximum 'growth'. I don't see it as a necessarily positive thing. Take Yukon, for example. Over the last 10 years we've added every type of shopping and food chain there is, along with the traffic to match. What most apparently see as exciting growth, I see as the town morphing into exactly what I was trying to avoid in the first place by living here.When they pay people $10,000 to move to Tulsa and work remotely, we will see the same thing.

End crotchety rant, lol.
Ive been telling my wife we didnt move quite far enough outside city limits to avoid infiltration over the next 10 years. Ive experienced it all my life and there is little more frustrating than city folks moving to the country and then making it feel like what they were fleeing.No ****. OKC and Tulsa will turn this state inside the next 5-7 years ... Just watch ...
