6 Great Reasons To Relocate To OKC
Oklahoma City is both the capital and largest city in Oklahoma and was incorporated in 1890, several years before Oklahoma was granted statehood. While the OKC metro area boasts more than 1.4 million residents, this city and its environs still have maintained a small-town feel that appeals to many. As home builders in Oklahoma, we love all that this state has to offer. Let’s dive in and take a look at why OKC might be the perfect city for you and your family.
1. Affordability
The cost of living in OKC is far below the national average. The average home price in Oklahoma City is about $205,000 while the average home price nationally is more than $495,000. Living expenses in general also are quite low compared to national averages.
2. A Booming Economy
Oklahoma City boasts a low unemployment rate and is home to a diverse range of industries including aerospace, healthcare, energy and technology. Some of the biggest employers include Devon Energy, Tinker Air Force Base, Amazon, Hobby Lobby and the University of Oklahoma.
3. Quality Education
We offer new homes in OKC in three suburbs, including new homes in Edmond OK, new homes in Guthrie and new homes in Piedmont, all of which offer quality public schools as well as many private schools. In fact, Edmond Public Schools is one of the top-ranked districts in the state.
Oklahoma City also is home to several colleges and universities including Oklahoma City University, the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center and Oklahoma State University – OKC., as well as several community colleges. These are all within an easy commute of most of our new homes in Oklahoma City.
4. Access To Healthcare
Oklahoma City offers several high-quality healthcare facilities and is considered a regional hub for both medical care and research. Facilities include the OU Medical Center, Mercy Hospital and INTEGRIS Baptist Medical Center. Both OU and INTEGRIS have facilities in Edmond, as well as Summit Medical Center. The Mercy health system also runs a full-service hospital in Guthrie.
5. Professional Sports & Entertainment
If you love basketball, OKC is a great fit, home to the NBA’s Oklahoma City Thunder. The city also has an MLB affiliate, the Oklahoma City Dodgers, as well as a professional soccer club, the Oklahoma City Energy.
For music lovers, the Oklahoma City Philharmonic offers a variety of performances every year. The Oklahoma Opry is a popular venue for country music lovers. The city’s art council hosts an annual Festival of the Arts, and the city boasts several excellent museums, including an art museum, the American Banjo Museum, the Oklahoma Railway Museum and the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum.
