Bartlesville is the best kept secret in Oklahoma. It's in a beautiful part of the state with green rolling hills, state parks, lakes, and has a river running through it. There are several city parks and a gorgeous walking trail that connects the city.
The restaurant scene has a mix of local flavors, big chains, and small chains. Shopping is the same with local boutiques and small businesses, plus TJMAXX, Ross, Hobby Lobby, Lowes, and more.
The school system is fantastic with great public schools, two private schools, a technology center, a private university and satellite campus for a state college.
Bartlesville is the home of the only Frank Loyd Wright skyscraper and rich in history and the arts. The Bartlesville Community Center offers off-Broadway shows, concerts, and local theater groups. Woolaroc is a 3000 acre ranch and world class museum.
Bartlesville is listed as the #8 best place to live in Oklahoma according to Niche. Once you experience it, you'll agree.

Bartlesville is okay, I guess. A lot of people seem to like it just fine, but I am utterly bored here. If you like musicals, that's about all we have. There is 1 movie theater, and it's stuck inside a dying mall (seriously, this is the most depressing mall I have ever been in.) I will say that I know nothing about the schools here.
Pros:
If you have friends, there are 2 good bars
The parks/pathfinder is pretty
There are many musicals
An abundance of fast food
Cons:
No good grocery store
No shopping
Nothing to do on the weekends. You have to travel 45 minutes to Tulsa if you want to do anything fun.
There is a mediocre restaurant scene with maybe 3 good places. After living here 3 years, I am absolutely sick of the only good things here haha
Oklahoma weather is the worst
A lot of places are very sketchy here and scare me. There's a huge biker gang called the Mongols that drive through a lot. They are one of the worst in the world and try to 'collect' crimes.

Bartlesville is a unique town in that all you need is here, and yet you have the benefits of small town living. Everything you need is within a 10-minute of the city center and traffic is minimal! For a town this size (population of about 40k), there is a good variety of restaurants and an often visited live theatre.
