I was there 9 months from Feb 92 till Oct 92. Nice appartment other than the fiddlebacks I kept finding.I spent 3 months there in 1990; it must the destination for wayward patriots.
Don't make the mistake I made years ago, I bought a house for $23,000 in what was not an ideal Midwest City neighborhood, I thought that if I fixed my house up it would encourage others to do the same. I spent around $15,000-refurbished the entire inside, had the wood floors sanded an polyed, new vinyl windows, insulation, paint, aluminum patio cover and carport cover, new kitchen cabinets and doors throughout plus a lot of sweat labor. No problem with the Blacks nearby, they were pretty nice but there was this family next door to me and their juvenile delinquent threw raw potatoes at my roof. I grabbed one and threw it back and nearly hit the kid in the head Whew!!! Then I had the plumbers come and do some work and the kid threw raw eggs at their van. I told the crew what he was doing and they told him ot either clean it up or the police will be called. He cleaned it up. Only other problems were the guy that lived there would leave int he AM for work and it was easier riving across my lawn so I had to ask them to stop which oddly worked. Then I had to park my car in the street one day and someone across the street backed into it and departed. Few visitors would come and the neighborhood kids would ransack their car if it wasn't locked. Saw a kid walk up to my car in my drive and try the door handle to see it it was unlocked. Then there was this little kid who was walking with an adult (?mom) and he saw and American flag in a flower pot on my front porch he ran over and kipped it. I did enjoy working on the house and it was the coolest in summer and warmest in the winter house I've ever lived in but after a few years it was time to move on...I sold the house for $32,000 and lost around $5,000 or so but got to live rent-free.
The moral of the story: Don't go into a bad neighborhood thinking that your presence will encourage others to clean things up-they won't. And if you buy in a not-so-good neighborhood, don't expect to sell at much of a profit. Sorry to put so much of my thoughts down.

I worked in Tulsa from 1999-2014. I commuted from over an hour our for years. When I met my wife in 2007 she was living in Owasso, it was not a great part, but not too bad. When we got married we moved to Collinsville. I liked it there, smaller town feel, just close enough to all the items you wanted, but out enough to have good neighbors and not so much noise. We lived in the older part north of Main street. Had a lot of fun there, but you couldn't pay me enough to move to Tulsa. There are a few good neighborhoods but they will cost you. And don't believe the BA hype, same as there as in Tulsa good neighborhoods cost a lot more, the rest I saw was not that great.
I hear on this, I grow up a stone throw away from the Osage Nation Headquarters.

I think south of the Sprint store on Utica are those old money homes like Heritage Hills and Mesta Park north of downtown OKC. I like those old mansion style homes built in the 20s and 30s.
Easy. Just put however any "o's" (or whatever letter you want) the first time you type it, and then add it to your dictionary. That way, when you start typing, it will pop up for you!
It's pretty much just ...magic...
Yup agreed went to OSU IT many years ago. Okmulgee is a dump. But they do have this cool dude that drags a cross around most days across from the Dairy Queen.
