Starting a business in Claremore?

Hi all, I'm a teacher here and It's a a small town city with about 19,921 people. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. Would love some local perspective. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.

Weather-wise, the summers are pretty good and winters are manageable. You get used to it after the first year.

Bought a house here in 2018 and it's exactly what I was looking for. Property values have gone up a bit since then.

My experience has been mostly positive. there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. The only thing I'd watch out for is outdoor recreation. Other than that, Would recommend to anyone considering it..

Public transit is tough here. You'll probably need a car for most things. it's not perfect but it works for me.

I'm a real estate agent and I've found it's been a really good experience overall. The community is underrated and there's always something going on.

Real talk - this place is not for everyone, and I think that's OK.

If you value community vibe, you'll love it. The public transit is genuinely pretty good and I've found it's exactly what I was looking for. My neighborhood (North) is reasonable and I feel safe walking around at night.

But if you're coming from Austin, be prepared for the culture shock. cost of living is completely different here. And Winters are long and cold.

My advice would be to visit for at least a week before committing. Rent first, don't buy. And explore multiple neighborhoods - they're all different.
