Suburb of Oklahoma City, OK
Current Resident: I'm originally not from Edmond, but my parents moved us here when we were in elementary. They thought it was a great place to raise their kids, and it has been. It's a very clean, welcoming environment. Everyone is friendly, and it's very refreshing. Compared to places near here like Enid, it's a very modern, well-developed city. There's no place I'd rather live!... Read 494 reviews

Current Resident: I have been living in Jenks for more than ten years now. It is a white majority. The only reason I lived here was because of family. A significant population of Burmese/Zomi here kept me here. But it's still pretty small in comparison to the total population. I went to Jenks Public Schools the whole time I lived here, and I would rate it pretty average overall. Their inclusivity isn't outstanding, but they offer many academic opportunities, which I am grateful for. I would say it is pretty safe in terms of crimes and theft. I have never experienced anything that put me in danger. It is affordable to live in. There is an adequate job opportunity that I am yet to experience, but there are many offers available. The commute time is good. The main thing is traffic during rush hour, which is pretty normal. But it goes by pretty quickly.... Read 66 reviews

Current Resident: Owasso is a fantastic place to grow up. I've lived here for my whole life. The public school system is one of the best in the state, the city is fairly safe, and it's a good size; its not too big or too small. Tulsa is just close enough to be easy to travel to but far away enough to distance yourself from big city life. However, Owasso's not a small city either, as there are plenty of shopping and entertainment options close by wherever you might live!... Read 173 reviews

Current Resident: I move to Oklahoma about three years ago, and I have to say I love it here! When they say there's nothing like southern hospitality they are surely telling the truth. The ease I get when I drive around the city, boosted my quality of life. Norman is known for having Oklahoma University, and the campus is gorgeous with its early 1900s architecture. Oddly enough the nightlife is very peaceful even though there's a predominantly large University, the students do not cause disturbance to neighboring homes.... Read 460 reviews

Current Resident: I have lived in Broken Arrow ever since I moved here in 2013. In these past 10 years, I believe I have experienced everything it has to offer. I have been schooled here since third grade and I think Broken Arrow Public Schools are slightly above average. I think it is phenomenal when compared with other nearby school districts such as Tulsa Public Schools since Broken Arrow schools are safer and more funded. Broken Arrow is a suburb of Tulsa, the second largest city in Oklahoma, which is great since Broken Arrow residents also enjoy the amenities that Tulsa has to offer such as entertainment, shopping, cuisine, and city life. Broken Arrow's closeness to Tulsa also ensures more job opportunities and if you have to commute it will not exceed 20 minutes in most cases. The houses are also very affordable and the real estate industry is growing rapidly. If you are looking for a quiet, but not boring, suburb to live in and raise a family I would strongly recommend living in Broken Arrow.... Read 367 reviews

Niche User: I absolutely love this area. I have grown up here and am so blessed to have done that. The people are friendly and it has a very homey atmosphere. Compared to other areas in the US, I feel the attitude here is more laid back and relaxed. People still enjoy the smaller things in life and don't take things for granted. In the future, I think this area will continue to grow as people move away from larger cities. New businesses are coming to this area very frequently, so I predict this trend will continue as the population grows.... Read 6 reviews

Verdigris is a very supporting community, and is all in whenever it comes to the schools sporting programs. Moving here from a large town with 30,000 people, to having 5,000 has been just what my kids needed.

Current Resident: nice place to live with very friendly people. Property tax is high but having a low mortgage helps. Gas is cheaper than national average. Moore is close to Oklahoma City and Norman which have more places to eat and entertainment. Moore is close to medical care if you need it. I do not know about schools as I have no children.

The area is focusing on its part of NW 23rd street and we're looking forward to seeing it come up. Many good restaurants, parks and lake activities. Would like to see a better grocery store and more focus on the property upkeep, esp.if the area apartments. More young people moving here and remodeling homes, it's a fun and interesting collection of houses. No two houses are the same!
