Oklahoma City Reviews
Rating 3.72 out of 5 1,362 reviews
I have lived here, in OKC, since birth. I really enjoy it. I love traveling to other places, but I am always happy to return home. Gazing over the wide open plains and seeing the beautiful sunrises and sunsets sets my heart at peace like no other place can. I love that I can travel 2-3 hours from the metro and experience some mountain trails to hike. The vast landscape of the state we have here in Oklahoma ranges from lakes to mountains to plains. There are many exciting and fun festivals throughout the year along with the ever-growing and popular events and restaurants around Bricktown. This area has expanded into Mid-Town, Paseo, and Film Row among other fun and exciting areas around the city. Scissortail Park is a great outdoor park for kids and parents; concerts are held continuously at Scissortail, the Zoo Ampitheater, or various other venues around the city. Come and see!
My time in Oklahoma City has been a rich tapestry of experiences. I've come to relish the city's ever-shifting climate, from scorching summers to serene snowy winters. This dynamic weather keeps life exciting and instills adaptability. Equally enthralling is the diversity of its people. Oklahoma City is a vibrant melting pot, where cultures intertwine harmoniously, offering unique perspectives and global flavors.
What truly distinguishes this city, though, is its exceptional work-school-life equilibrium. It boasts a thriving job market and numerous educational institutions, enabling personal and professional growth. Yet, it never forgets to prioritize leisure, providing an array of parks, cultural events, and recreational activities.
In sum, my Oklahoma City experience is a journey marked by varied weather, cultural richness, and a balanced approach to life, encapsulating the essence of embracing diversity and harmonizing work and play.

There is a ton of things to do for all ages alike. For young adults there are good restaurants, bars and little clubs to get involved. For kids there are museums, a zoo, great libraries and parks. I love that it is a city vibe but still pretty low key and not crowded. I moved here 4 years ago from Columbus, OH and Oklahoma City definitely has more of a hometown vibe with the amenities of a large city. Love it!
