Oklahoma City has a variety of farmers’ markets


Born at the sound of a gunshot, Oklahoma City was settled by a historic land run involving 10,000 homesteaders on April 22, 1889. As exciting as that time must have been, it doesn’t compare to the energy and exuberance of today’s Oklahoma City. Home to more than 1.2 million people, OKC is making waves on the international scene by continually improving our city’s quality of life. You can see it everywhere. In the urban fabric of our growing downtown. On the tree-lined streets of historic neighborhoods and arts districts that help to foster our famous friendliness and creative output. On the smiles of a raucous crowd at an NBA Oklahoma City Thunder game. And in our diverse economy that’s among the strongest in the nation.

Home to industry and entrepreneurship, creatives and the courageous, famous chefs and funny actresses, not to mention politicians and professional athletes, Oklahoma City makes everyone feel at ease. The best part is that we’ve only just begun. A true renaissance is in motion, and it’s time for you to join us.

So come on out and let’s have some fun. Oklahoma City makes it easy. Easy to grow, easy to prosper, easy to be yourself, easy to become part of our community and just easy to live. After all, that’s why we say in Oklahoma City, it’s truly a better living and a better life.

ABOUT OKC


OKC - YOUR NEXT HOMETOWNLocated in the heart of the state, Oklahoma City is the perfect combination of big city and small town, making it a rare mixture of everything you want without everything you don’t. With a downtown urban renaissance, quaint neighborhoods, a burgeoning art scene, plenty of recreational opportunities, and abundant parks and lakes, Oklahoma City has something for everyone.

The city has a long history with innovation and creativity. From the abundance of arts and cultural experiences to the public investment projects that have brought on Oklahoma City’s modern day renaissance, our residents know how to create a city they’re proud to call home.

The first citizens of Oklahoma City took fate into their own hands and created a city from scratch. History seemed to repeat itself in the 1990s when citizens voted for a penny sales tax to fund investments known locally as MAPS (Metropolitan Area Projects). Nine projects and $350 million later, Oklahoma City had a modern day renaissance on its hands and today, there’s no sign of stopping.

The original MAPS led to more than $5 billion in total investment, including both public and private investment projects that are continuing our renaissance. Today, our reinvented downtown boasts the NBA’s Oklahoma City Thunder, a U.S. Olympic training center for rowing and canoe/kayak, an inviting array of restaurants, arts and entertainment venues and more.

When you call Oklahoma City home, you’ll experience our past, present and future, and discover for yourself why our residents just can’t get enough of this thriving, urban metropolis.

Sports & RecreationOklahoma City is a haven for sports and recreation enthusiasts. Here you’ll find the home of the NBA Oklahoma City Thunder. The

nation’s oldest basketball tournament. A U.S. Olympic and Paralympic training site for rowing and canoe/kayak. The ASA Softball Hall of Fame. And so much more. Whether you’re into watching a baseball game, doing a little rock climbing, going for a hike, sailing across an urban lake, riding your bike along the Oklahoma River and much more, you’ll never run out of options here.

We’ll Surprise YouSure, Oklahoma City boasts clean air, low crime, easy commutes, friendly people, and quaint neighborhoods. But you’ll also find new and renovated schools, fresh farmers markets, a dynamic arts and music scene, a cradle

of entrepreneurship, more than 300 days of sunshine per year and a great sense of community. But what’s different about Oklahoma City?

For starters, you can still dream big. Far from losing that pioneer spirit that took our city from a population of zero to 10,000 at the sound of a starter’s pistol, we thrive on it. A renewed emphasis on public improvements and large-scale projects has helped propel our renaissance and make OKC a big-league city, while also keeping us a great place to live, work, and play. This enterprise and energy is evident everywhere. From urban hustle to suburban living, Oklahoma City not only makes it all possible, but makes it easy.

Quality, commitment and accountability – these are just a few of the words that reflect the sweeping changes and improvements in education in Oklahoma City.

In 2001, Oklahoma City voters approved MAPS for Kids, a comprehensive education reform plan that raised $700 million for Oklahoma City Public Schools and 23 surrounding school districts. In addition to building seven schools and renovating 65 others, the plan calls for strategic academic reforms; improved student achievement; restored classroom discipline; and increased accountability.

Oklahoma schools have received national recognition for alternative education, early childhood accessibility and the increasing number of teachers earning National Board Certification – the profession’s top credential. A national study by Education Week gave Oklahoma education high marks for standards and accountability, and for efforts

From rowing to running and Frisbee golf to softball, Oklahoma City will keep you moving! With a full slate of college championship games in baseball, softball and basketball, there’s always something to cheer about.

Big League CityThe NBA’s Oklahoma City Thunder has transformed the downtown Chesapeake Energy Arena into one of the toughest places to play in professional sports – not to mention the league’s 6th best arena according to the Orlando Sentinel. Led by 2010 and 2011 scoring champion Kevin Durant and Coach of the Year Scott Brooks, the Thunder made the playoffs in just their second year in Oklahoma City and finished in the top 10 in attendance. And in 2011, the Thunder’s mascot, Rumble the Bison, joined the celebrated Durant and Brooks when he was named the NBA’s top mascot.

You can also see the future stars of baseball at one of the top minor league ballparks in the country at Redhawks Field at Bricktown Ballpark. The Oklahoma City Redhawks, the triple-A affiliate of the Houston Astros, won four divisional titles this past decade and routinely feature some of the best young talent in baseball.

The Oklahoma City Barons are an American Hockey League franchise that debuted in Oklahoma City in 2010. The Barons serve as the top minor league affiliate for the NHL’s Edmonton Oilers and continue a tradition of outstanding hockey fan support in Oklahoma City.

Urban RetreatsWith more than 50 lakes within an hour’s drive, 83 miles of trails and 33 public and private golf courses, Oklahoma City offers plenty of opportunities to connect with nature in an urban setting. The city’s extensive park system provides attractive, well-maintained areas for tennis, swimming, biking, jogging and even horseback riding. A complete redesign of the 17-acre Myriad Botanical Gardens was completed in 2011. The revamped gardens include a grand performance

lawn, a children’s discovery garden, an ice skating rink, a café, a dog release area and more. Included in this downtown oasis is the Crystal Bridge Tropical Conservatory – a seven-story cylinder suspended over a lake the size of a football field – which serves as the garden’s centerpiece.

Another quiet retreat in the city is Martin Park Nature Center. This 140-acre park in northwest Oklahoma City is a protected natural wildlife refuge with hiking trails, a nature center and a hands-on museum.

Oklahoma City’s more than 3,000 hours of sunlight each year make golf a favorite pastime for many residents. With more than 33 public and private courses, you’ll never be too far from the opportunity to hit the links and work on your swing.

Run, Cycle, Row & More In addition to a comprehensive and growing citywide trails system, Oklahoma City is also home to some of the most prestigious running and cycling races in the country. Both the Oklahoma City National Memorial Marathon and the Red Bud Classic have received accolades from Runner’s World. With numerous races, clubs and shops, cycling enthusiasts have no problem finding a home in Oklahoma City.

The Oklahoma River is fast becoming one of the world’s premier venues for rowing and canoe/kayak. Each year the river, a U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Training Site for the sports of rowing and canoe/kayak, hosts numerous regattas. But you don’t have to be a world-class athlete to get on the water. The Boathouse District has a variety of community classes, programs and rentals.

For those on a quest for the extreme, Oklahoma City is home to the 26,000-sq.-ft. Mat Hoffman Action Sports Park, one of the most challenging skateparks in the region. The facility is designed for skateboards, in-line skating and BMX freestyle biking. If that isn’t enough, the Rocktown Climbing Gym, built inside an old concrete grain silo, boasts indoor and outdoor climbs.

The National Softball Hall of Fame is located here and the adjoining stadium hosts the annual NCAA and Big 12 Softball Championships. The NCAA also holds several of their championships in Oklahoma City.

Oklahoma City also hosts the world’s oldest basketball tournament still played. The All-College Basketball tournament was started in 1935 and outdates the NCAA, NIT, NBA and NAIA tournaments. The classic, nearing its 80th year, has featured legends like Bill Russell, Pete Maravich, Eddie Sutton, Henry Iba and Wayman Tisdale.

Ever wish you had more time in the day? In Oklahoma City, you will! Here, you can enjoy the fact that we don’t spend hours sitting in traffic going to and from work. And getting across town for any of the lifestyle amenities the city offers is quick and easy.

In Oklahoma City, which Forbes magazine ranked No. 4 in its “10 Best Cities for Commuters,” residents have an average one-way commute of only about 21 minutes. Compare that to 26.5 minutes in Phoenix and 26.7 in Denver. Five minutes might not sound like much, but when you double it daily, then multiply it by five days a week, you’ll get a time savings of 50 minutes. That’s about 50 hours saved in a single year!

Oklahoma City’s extraordinary size (621 square miles) is tamed by a generous network of interstates and free-flowing arteries making it easy for residents to commute from home to any corner of the metro without being tied up in traffic.

Two of the nation’s most important highways – Interstate 40, which runs from Los Angeles to Raleigh, N.C.; and Interstate 35, which runs all the way from Mexico to Canada – meet in downtown Oklahoma City. The intersection of these major highways, along with the nearly 13,000 miles of streets in the city, ensures Oklahoma City’s status as the crossroads of America.

GETTING AROUND


The city’s location, equidistant from both coasts at the junction of three of the nation’s major arteries, ensures easy travel and transportation from Oklahoma City to anywhere in the U.S.

Oklahoma’s largest airport, Will Rogers World Airport, is named for the famous Oklahoma humorist who was also an avid aviation

supporter. A recent $110-million expansion added eight new gates to the airport, which serves nine major airlines, seven regional airlines and a growing number of charter services with more than 75 daily departures, including direct connections to 20 airports in 18 cities.

Looking to go south of the Red River? Amtrak service via The Heartland Flyer makes daily runs between Oklahoma City and Fort Worth, Texas. Once you get to Fort Worth, you can easily pick up connections to Dallas, Chicago and San Antonio. The train departs and arrives at historic Santa Fe Depot at the front door of Bricktown – Oklahoma City’s entertainment district.
