Grew up in Philadelphia. Oklahoma is a wonderful nature state Hunting. Fishing. Outdoor life. Wonderful place. 30 years here. Never going back

I love visiting other states and countries, but it's the people that keep me coming back to Oklahoma. I can walk up and down Times Square and not have a single person acknowledge me, but almost everyone I pass in Oklahoma greets me with a hello and a smile.😁

Love your information about Oklahoma. We are both Arizona natives, but we moved to Grove in 2010, and loved it. We were there almost 6 years. One thing you mentioned that Oklahoma doesn't have snow. It does and it has a lot at times, especially in the eastern part of the state. We were in Grove in 2011 when they had the record snowfall of 22 inches and 22 below zero and those records have not been broken. We were living in an RV when that happened but we did great. Also loved your mention of Braums, we miss that place so much. Their ice cream is and was the best. But you failed to mention there is a Braums in Joplin MO also. We also loved their hamburgers too. Oklahoma is a great place to live and for us retirees on a tight budget we did fine there. We just had to move back to Arizona because our son became ill with cancer (which we lost him in January 2021), but would go back in a heartbeat. Also so many people cry about Oklahoma having tornados. Yes they do, but the entire 1/3 of the middle of the country from the Mexican border to the Canadian border is actually called Tornado Alley, all if it. But there are other states that have as many it not more tornados then Oklahoma. And many people don't know it but Oklahoma has MORE earthquakes than any other state in the union, including California.

Been a proud Texan all my life. Seriously considering a move. I am sick and tired of our serious lack of seasons. I want to experience a real "southern winter" for a change. Glad you covered the seasons.

We plan on moving to Oklahoma soon! - Me and my fiancé live in Delaware so about a day ride (14-16 hours) We plan on moving too Moore or Oklahoma city! I was born and raised in Delaware, however, my fiancé was born and raised in Pennsylvania. We LOVE the country and how affordable Oklahoma is.

Lived in 1 house in edmond my entire life i love it great place to grow up and learn very safe and not too expensive along with alot of space

Having lived in FL, I can say OK is hardly humid in the summer! Summers in S Fla are literally like being in a sauna 24/7 😓

You are very authentic. I like that you don’t do lots of editing. Just let the skis run. Thanks and good luck to you.

It's definitely cheap to live there but your pay is very low compare to the other states. I am in Austin TX now and if I would move to OKC I would be making almost $8 less per hour. Low pay therefore low cost.

Oklahoma is an OK place to live. It is dirt cheap to live here, but the trade off is that there is relatively little to do. Its a good 2-3 hour drive to get somewhere fun for the weekend. (Mainly Arkansas , Devil's Den, Beavers Bend, Wichita Wildlife Refuge, Robbers Cave all fun places, just a pretty decent drive to get there) Summers are hot and humid, but the winters are relatively mild. I am not saying it doesn't get cold, but it rarely snows and if we get anything, its ice. But that is only a couple of times a winter. And, of course, what's not to love about Braums? Yum!

Thank you for the information. I am 46 and lived in Illinois all my life. I plan on moving to Oklahoma within the next few months. It's such a beautiful state and I think I'll fit in real well down there. Once again thank you for this very informative video, I'm pretty sure it has convinced me to move there.

One pro I was expecting was the people. We are famous for our hospitality and friendliness. I can’t tell you how many people I’ve talked to from other states that said that they were blown away by how friendly and helpful we are. It’s the Oklahoma Standard.

Thanks for explaining this! The part about the weather is definitely similar to here in Tennessee

As a Texan, I often travel to or through Oklahoma. I like Texas' good neighbor, Oklahoma.

Great info! My sister lived in Tulsa for a couple of years and summer was brutal, but such a beautiful area to live in!

Thank you so much for sharing! Super informative. I’m from Arizona & plan on moving to Oklahoma within the next few months!

I been planning on moving to OKC for awhile now. Most of the cons doesn't really bother me. And the pros are always good to know.

Braum’s is a total pro. They actually have stores/restaurants within a 6 hr drive of their Tuttle Farm. The SE part of OK is beautiful. I’m from the area originally, I wouldn’t recommend moving their unless you only care about church gatherings as your main form of entertainment though.

It’s amazing here, but don’t get surprised if you get all 4 seasons in a day.

It's so cool to learn this info! A childhood best friend of mine was from OK, moved to MN and then back to OK when we were kids, i was so sad! It's so cool to learn about where she is from though, thank you for the info!!

Live in Texas and have begged my husband to move to OK for a long time. Hopefully one day!

I have lived in Oklahoma all of my life (grew up in Lawton)been trying to get some family members to move to Oklahoma or Texas.Going to send them this vid to try to get them to move!

Great information, thank you for your local insight, really helpful. The pros outweigh the cons for me :)

Very educative and informative. God bless you for this video

I'm moving to Oklahoma from Missouri and this helps a ton thank you I think I'll be able to handle it Missouri's summers are so gross and swampy

I’m a full Oklahoman I was born in Oklahoma and I stayed my entire life

We also have extreme weather changes, ie: winter of 2011...extreme snowfall, record lows in the -20’s, then days later back into the 30’s and 40’s. Record earthquakes, heat, cold precipitation, drought, and so on. Great pros and cons!!

It doesn’t snow, it can rain a lot. It’s windy. I can’t wait!!

Fantastic job! I used to live in Edmond! Love Braums! 🍦

it does snow occasionally in Okla. the seasons/weather here is a bit bi-polar...(to say the least ;) )......i was born here in Okla., and have lived here 64 of my 66yrs. life. eastern Okla. is very different from central & western Okla. eastern, is quite lush and green... very "southern-ish" , central Okla. looks very mid-western/south western...........and western Okla . looks like a set from a "spaghetti western"......and every part has it's own beauty.

Brahms❤️ our favorite place to visit when we come back home to Oklahoma!

Tks for video! I live in Denver and go to Oklahoma occasionally for Woodyfest in Okemah, but I didn't attend this year. So, kinda miss Oklahoma so your video was fun for me.

I grew up in elk city and loved my childhood!

"one or two days in the fall are nice" I live here. That is not accurate. Fall in most of Oklahoma is beautiful. Most days mid Sept to through mid Nov are nice to get out in.

Regarding Passenger Rail options in Oklahoma: I have taken AMTRAK between Norman, OK and KCMO and between Norman, OK and Naperville, IL near Chicago. The portion of the trip between Norman and OKC is on The Heartland Flyer and the portion of the trip between the OKC Sante Fe station on EK Gaylord in OKC and Newton Kansas is on a coach bus dedicated to AMTRAK with only 1 intermediate stop in Wichita. The remainder of the trip between Newton Kansas and your ultimate destination which in my case was on The Southwest Chief #4 East bound (to KCMO or Naperville) or The Southwest Chief #3 West bound (from Naperville or KCMO to Newton Kansas). The Southwest Chief long distance intercity passenger train runs between LA and Chicago). Unfortunately there isn't a passenger train between OKC and Tulsa yet which at one point was going to be called the Eastern Flyer and the present Tulsa Mayor hasn't been supportive of it preferring instead to look ahead at driverless car technology than a mass mover of people like passenger rail. I don't know too many people who are likely to afford a driverless car in the near future either and especially for solving a mass transit capability. You have more room to stretch out on a train than on a bus or plane. There is a more positive FB article about taking the Heartland Flyer AMTRAK train between OKC and Fort Worth where there are further rail connections including Dallas, DFW Airport, and even the Texas Eagle long distance train. This can avoid the stress of driving in the DFW area and the tolls too that you're subsequently billed for. - facebook.com/groups/HeartlandFlyer/permalink/10157685752291921/ The most knowledgeable person about passenger rail information is Evan Stair and you can find some of his FB posts at the following two FB groups. - Friends of the Heartland Flyer - facebook.com/groups/HeartlandFlyer/ and Friends of the Southwest Chief - facebook.com/groups/25567124972 Unfortunately, the Southwest Chief schedules are thrice weekly during COVID but am hopeful for a return to daily scheduling at some point and hopefully a return to Chef prepared meals to order in its dining car again too. The Southwest Chief does have sleeping car(s) with bedroom roomettes (up to 2 people), bedrooms, and family bedrooms. You would want to try to book well in advance if you want a bedroom. AMTRAK sometimes offers discounts on their bedroom rooomettes which might make it worthwhile for couples traveling together. It's my understanding that the prices for booking a bedroom include dining car meals (exceopt alcoholic beverages) but right now the dining car meals are reheated like on an airline as opposed to chef prepared to order. I don't know if/when there might be a return to chef prepared to order meals off of a menu in the dining car and it's a major benefit to traveling on the long distance trains and in booking a bedroom on the train. There is an effort underway to extend the northern terminus of the Heartland Flyer from OKC to Newton Kansas. If/when that happens, it could add stops in Edmond, Guthrie, Perry, and Ponca City in Oklahoma and Arkansas City, Wichita, and Newton in Kansas. I was born in Norman, and grew up in Weatherford.

I'm watching your video becaues I may be moving to norman within the next few months.

I'm thinking about it. Anything to get out of this Arizona heat.

I live in the ugliest town in America and i am looking for cooler weather and water. It’s called bullhead city Arizona. I am looking for a house, because thanks to California everything is so expensive in Vegas and Phoenix. 1,900 for a house payment 😩 I think i will check out Texas. I enjoyed your video

As a nativeOklahoman the best advice I’m gonna give anyone is if you’re coming from out of state and are wanting to live the Oklahoma way you’re more than welcome to embrace in the culture be a cowboy you name it but do not try to change our way or culture.m

it snowed in winters in Muskogee where i lived.

We are buying some property in Weleetka It seems real nice. I am originally from Texas too hot and muggy, lived in Seaside Oregon for a while and now in Washington state for finishing my working years. All the land is ridiculously expensive in these places other than, Oklahoma. My wife and the small live stock collection awaits me there. I love farming where it rains just right so far. And not -40 degrees like Minnesota. Thank you.

This is awesome! I totally agree with everything you said haha!

It does snow here unfortunately. Not a lot but we do get it

Considering moving to Oklahoma from Michigan. Lived in Kansas City most of my life so the weather won't bother me.

I didn’t know there were any pros. You learn something every day. Just kidding… Great sports? Absolutely - golf, pinochle, tennis, bowling, bocce ball, checkers, tipping cows. Can’t wait!!!

Great description of summer- we grew up in NE and experienced the same. Tornadoes are intimidating, but community pulls together. 👍

Sitting on the porch watching a tornado is probably something I would do because I used to watch lightning from my porch in Northern Arizona during monsoon season. I've never seen a tornado, but have seen a few water spouts off the coast of SoCal though. Thanks for all the info on Oklahoma.

i rlly like moore and el reno would love to have a house there in the future.

Lived in ok my whole life the high humidity and heat makes summers miserable I would use a different analogy though imagine someone has just taken a really hot shower in a tiny bathroom that’s what outside feels like all the time you almost feel like you should hold your breath because your brain half thinks it’s underwater it does snow but normally melts quickly turning the ground to sludge falls are great I’d say not cold between mid September and mid October we normally get a perfect 30 days of no air or heater needed great grilling weather springs are rainy as the Amazon but normally not hot like summer so it’s pleasant if you don’t mind getting wet tornadoes aren’t terrible like most think they cut very thin swaths of destruction and with Oklahoma population so spread out it’s rare for anything to get destroyed and when it does it’s normally just minor/severe roof dmg I’d be way more worried about hurricanes wildfires and earthquakes

We had 500 acres outside of Elk City great weekend fishing trips

I've visited Oklahoma, small towns and a lot of the older people wave with there index finger. Does anyone know what that means.

I’d say Oklahoma is Southern. I’m from Texas and I’ve always considered Oklahoma a Southern state. You’re south of the Mason Dixon Line so you’re Southern in my book lol ETA: Fort Worth has a bus system and a local Amtrak around DFW itself. Also Uber is readily available here.

Uh -- it most definitely snows in Oklahoma, (wherever she got that it doesn't is crazy wrong) but it's the ice that is the big problem in winter. Snow you can drive on, but it doesn't matter how many wheels you've got connected to the engine - none of them will get any traction on ice - and Oklahoma has plenty of it every year. Fall, IMO, is the absolute best season in Oklahoma - nice and mild - not either hot or cold as she claims here. Spring is quite beautiful too, but definitely the "change" season - being the most active tornado part of the year -- but tornadoes occur in the fall too - when the seasons are changing - as it's strong cold and warm fronts colliding with each other that create the violent things. Summer is quite nice, until the middle of July, and from there its a blast furnace for the next 45 days or so, which is why it would be very difficult to find anyone without AC in Oklahoma. Also; Braum's dairy farms and the independent dairy farms where they get their milk do NOT milk the cows by hand - (I hate it when someone implies Oklahoma is a backward state - as she did with the hand-milking thing) - it's all done very efficiently with milking machines that are much less bothersome to the cow than someone doing it by hand. Since most people in the entire USA spend most of their leisure time in front of the TV or on the computer, you can do that too in Oklahoma with all the same cable programming, etc, etc. So, along with plenty of movie theaters, common US entertainment is also quite common in Oklahoma - absolutely no different than anywhere else. And, she didn't mention the food - but Oklahomans KNOW their food - and there's every imaginable type of food available in most areas. Some of the best restaurants I have ever been in -- and I've been all over the US - has been in Oklahoma. So there's that too. Oklahoma is a great place to live, BUT -- it's definitely NOT for everyone -- AND - most Oklahomans would rather everyone just stay wherever they are, and leave Oklahoma exactly as the born-n-raised have come to know and love it.

Thanks for the video.. great information for everybody who wants to move there...

Yes Braums is awesome

We’re In California. But used to live in Montana and want to get back to rural living.

Amo essa cidade, sou do B6 e acho linda, meu sonho é um dia ir morar em Oklahoma-Tulsa

Thanks for the video... getting ready to leave Colorado and this was informative. We're thinking piedmont area...

Great stuff, thanks!

My husband got a job offer from one of his friends to make $50k a year, so that would help us a lot, we live in western Nebraska, but it kind of makes me optimistic when you said it doesnt snow, but the tornadoes do scare me though but interesting video

Thank you sooo much!! This video really helped me!!!

Love this video idea, great job, are you getting leads from this? Love the transparency on this video.

Seriously all my life Oklahoma as a state has struggled to get it's act together, all in the shadow of Texas which definitely has it's act together, which is why Oklahoma has only been growing perhaps 1% year to year, businesses and people are constantly moving down to Texas...but Oklahoma is not alone, every state that borders Texas suffers from this, everything is centered in Texas and surrounding states are just standing still. I don't see this changing in Oklahoma too soon, the character of the state is, good enuff...which is why the state is the state that it's in...

Love Learning about other parts of this great Country ! The weather sounds crazy !!!! Tornados not for me :-)

You forgot the ice storms in the winter.

I've read a lot of horror stories about tarantulas and scorpions in Tulsa. What is the deal? I will die if it is common

I also was born in claremore and moved to norman at 19

In the process of buying land from Sky River Properties LLC, they are out of Texas... We are hoping to close on this land in Latimer County today....Fingers Crossed!!!

So what is it like living there if you are not religious?

I live in Oklahoma

Once again, great folks, windy as hell! Played college golf for OCU. Boomer Sooner!

The first thing that I think about on hearing the word "Oklahoma" is... OKC THUNDERRR!!!!😎⚡⚡🔥

Do you guys have plorps down there? Nothing better then a nice big juicy plorp on a hot summers day! Takes me back to my 50's when I had enough men take charge and deploy the old ones. Good times

OK it sounds like a nightmare to me but there must be something positive other then it's cheap.

Find me 1 acre with a shop/ metal barn on it. Can ya do it? What's your website?

Nice video. 60 years old with my 32 year-old wife and two toddlers. I'm a Caucasian guy married to a Filipina. If I move to Oklahoma do you expect we would have any kind of social problems? We're a little worried because we don't know anybody there but we've heard good things about the state in general. Looking for a place to raise our kids that's good.

OKC is divided up into 4 counties

Very useful vid

Dude it's February and it's 14 degrees. like the heck Oh and if you live in Tulsa and wanna go to Kansas City that will be 8 hours, well id did for me and I left a 1:00 pm

Thinking of moving here alone

fun fact, Brahms is another term for Brahman the highest caste and the God Brahma, creator of the universe in Hinduism who made Vishnu and Shiva ordain the world. Krishna, Vishnu's avatar plays a flute with Brahman cows as he shows his respect for mother nature and nourishment. Cows are scared in India, they are not to be messed with cause it symbolizes love, strength and fertility.

About life in Oklahoma, how much money does it cost me per month to shop for basic household needs, is it high or low?....#oklahoma

Is there access to organic food? What about organic farms and ranches?

You think the seasons are bad in Oklahoma, move to Iowa

Thankyou for the video,is Grove, Ok a good place to live and work?

I lived in Oklahoma for 8 years. Their state income tax cost me an extra $4,400/year. Plus they have a sales tax including on groceries. Texas doesn’t have a state income tax nor do we have a sales tax on groceries. But don’t move here.

Pros: you can move out. Cons: it’s Oklahoma.

Oklahoma is the best place for storm chasers to be at

Can anyone tell me if Duncan or Comanche are good places to live?

Is Broken Arrow a good area for small families?

Good video
