I've lived here my entire life! Edmond is a cute little town that while isn't particularly exciting is safe and quaint. There is a lot of traffic but call me nostalgic I just enjoy the area a lot. People around here are as nice as conservative southerners can be, airs pretty clean. No one knows how to drive in rain or snow but they at least move out of the way. Also it's. A touch hard to find jobs in town, but that's mostly due to the college.
I love Edmond. There is always something interesting going on downtown. There's culture, lots of interesting shops and restaurants, but it still has a small town feel. Everything I need is nearby. I love the amount of parks, and they are all beautiful! Most of the city is extremely well kept and clean and there are sidewalks everywhere!
