Live in south Okc. Lost a home in 1999and lost a home in Moore in 2013 to Tornadoes.Every state has something. But Oklahoma people are the best.Most helpful and outgoing.Not to mention the OU football team.
This was a nice video that captured my experience as well. My wife and I moved with our two young boys to Oklahoma almost a year ago so they would have a place to grow up surrounded by kind people. Oklahoma is definitely not for everyone, but for those of us who it is for, love it.
I grew up in Oklahoma. Moved to California 33 years ago. I love California but I do miss some things about Oklahoma. I miss the warm summer nights (it's cold here is SF). I miss the scent of the buffalo grass after a summer rain. I miss going to the Watermelon Festival in Rush Springs. The sound of cicadas during the dog days of summer. Being rocked to sleep by the sound of thunder in the skies (yes, I find thunder to be soothing). We don't have thunderstorms where I live now. I miss the warm Southern Wind that feels like it could lift you into the sky. (I don't miss the cold Northern Wind, that cuts like a knife, when there's nothing between you and the North Pole but a barbed wire fence!) Every place has it's pluses and minuses. But I'll always have a fondness for Oklahoma, no matter where I roam.
I’m a Canadian that moved to the states 3 years ago. Starting in Los Angeles, then Austin and ended up in Stillwater. I love Stillwater and Oklahoma. The people are amazing. So many places to check out and the best place for kitesurfing is in Oklahoma (salt plains state park). I’m not going anywhere. Okie is special
I grew up in Oklahoma, they are the warmest friendliest people in the country. The Summers are unbearably hot and humid, if you can survive them it’s just a nice place to be.
Born n raised in Lawton, lived in Stillwater while going to Okstate, then moved to Norman n been in Norman since. I love my home state and would not live anywhere else. To me the phrase "we belong to the land!" is amazing and sounds even better in Latin. Nos ad terram pertinent!
Born and reared in Ninnekah Oklahoma south of chickasha find that one on the map had a road sign welcoming you to Ninnekah on the back side of that sign it said the same thing love the state and if you don't like the weather just wait a second it'll change I have gone to bed at night at 12:00 midnight windows open fan running woke up at 4:00 a.m. almost a foot of snow on the ground by lunch time was in the '70s
Vegas to Slaughterville, quite the shift. I suspect I'd prefer Slaughterville to Vegas but I'd prefer Norman to Slaughterville. I was born and raised in Oklahoma and often had almost debilitating allergies, moved to Pennsylvania and they've almost disappeared. Oklahoma is a very itchy, sneezie sort of place.
Born and raised. There's lots to love. My main complaint is that there is a dearth of public lands. There are little oases scattered throughout the state and I love these little gems. They are typically small, though, and require quite a drive to reach them. For someone who loves to hike, it can get monotonous very quickly.
I am glad you watched until the end! 🤓 My parents were making a joke at this point in the video. We, of course, know of and drive through the Arbuckle’s frequently on our way to Lake Texoma and have been to mount Scott many times for summer trips. The joke is an ongoing thing from people who aren’t from Oklahoma (for example, my in-laws during the interview mention they are from Vegas and have lived in Colorado as well as Wyoming where in comparison, our mountains look more like “hills” as they say) and comment by laughing and saying we “don’t have mountains” because they are not the same size as say, the Rocky’s or the Appalachian’s. This video was made while I was attending school for film and I am still learning things about the editing process. Especially when it comes to adding details as simple as the fact that what you are commenting on was meant to be a joke. I put my heart and soul into all that I create and though it may not be a masterpiece, it is still something I cherish very much. I appreciate any constructive criticism that may come my way but please remember to be kind.
Out in Eastern Oklahoma, near Heavener, they have what is billed as the worlds tallest hill and near it is the worlds shortest mountain. Apparently the "Hill" is less than a foot shorter than the technical definition of a mountain, and the "mountain" is about a foot taller than that limit.
It's okay except for the heat, cold, constant wind which makes being outside kind of an ordeal and the worst place for allergies as yet discovered by man. The plains are tough man.
Elmore City is a great place for hunting! My father used to have a specific place that he enjoyed going every season where he caught some award winning buck! It can be a very fruitful area for game control. There is also a large hunting park located in Lexington near Slaughterville with a ton of land surrounding the area with plenty of residential property.
Moving to Oklahoma shortly… hoping that it remains a free state as much as possible. Those of you moving from Marxist style governments need to remember this when and if you vote.
I suggest joining us in ok2a, involve yourself at some capacity in commerce and politics in your city, and we will keep our land grand. NOS AD TERRAM PERTINENT!
well done video where ever ya live focus on the positive, enjoy the nature the Good Lord created. I’ve lived in Oklahoma for 17 years a beautiful state. I could mention the negatives but there are a lot more positives. Thanx for the video & you all have a blessed day!
I was born and raised in Oklahoma. I live a few miles from the Wichita Wildlife Refuge home of some of the oldest mountains in the world. Mount Scott is the tallest of these mountains and can be driven to the top with a spectacular view. There are many lakes, wildlife Buffalo, Longhorns, Deer, Elk, Prairie dogs, and many other animals. Camping in some areas. The Holy City with the longest running Passion Play of the life of Jesus and His Resurrection. My husband , son and myself were in the play for many years.
Rural our joke is we have more cows than people can't wait oregon homes are nuts raise here can't find anything can't wait a month we will be moving. Ps I live far away from Portland most Oregonian hate Portland I live closer to boise
Here is a blog that I made about OKC Growing and all of the exciting stuff happening here! hive.blog/travel/@stealthtrader/oklahoma-city-is-growing-pt-2
That's awesome! That is the exact reason I started working on this project so people have more of an understanding of what Oklahoma really looks like and not as barren as they believe.

I've lived all over the USA and the world. When it was time to settle down and ease up some, I chose SE Oklahoma...still here!
Born and raised all over Oklahoma and this is spot on... I have lived in all these places so it felt like I was watching my own life lol.

I have been all over the world but still come home to Oklahoma. It is a great place to live. I love it here.
Oklahoma is an amazing place to live because of the people.
As far as tornadoes, don't think Oklahoma is ALWAYS about tornadoes. There are beautiful places in Oklahoma, we aren't all flat!
Dad grew up in Tulsa and always emphasized "spelled with a u, said like an e." He settled in Illinois so I am from Illinois. Now I live in Oklahoma.
Awesome!!!
I sure do miss Oklahoma. Thanks for this.
Tulsa here , born and bred : )
Oklahoma born and raised. Best people
Nice! 👍👍

I'm glad you found a place that doesn't have you itching, but I think we would appreciate, here in Oklahoma, not to trash us.
@@DMWolFGurL LOL, snowflake.

I love OKC, moved here from Seattle in 2011 and never plan on moving back to Seattle
This is not accurate. Oklahoma has four mountain ranges. They are not the Rocky’s but they are mountains and they are beautiful.

@@taun856 I grew up in Pocola 18 miles from Cavanagh Hill and saw it out my bedroom window every day.
Been here all my life
there ARE mountains in southeast Oklahoma and they are beautiful!
I have family that live in Slaughterville off Slaughterville Road. Use live there myself and graduated from Noble High School in 1990
It's okay except for the heat, cold, constant wind which makes being outside kind of an ordeal and the worst place for allergies as yet discovered by man. The plains are tough man.
This was a nice project. Maybe something a little more in depth would be cool!
Thank you! I have another untitled project in the works. I’m hoping everyone will enjoy what I’ve learned since filming this one. 😁
Looking to move to Oklahoma, thinking of either Weatherford, or Guthrie, any suggestions or advice??
@@themadlad8540 I am neither, I hate politics, they're all useless
Not democrat or Republican and think politicians are worthless…Oklahoma is your place!
@@thomasmbr seriously? I am looking hard at weatherford, I didn't realize it's a college town though
@@thomasmbr looking for a place close to Elk, and pronghorn, and deer hunting, and places to fish as well.

Just like the people in the vid said, you don’t get the best & brightest. I have a mountain practically in my backyard.

I lived in Norman, OK from 2005-2008. It wasn't terrible but I found the people to be unfriendly and strange.
