Worst things about living in Oklahoma City
Look, I love Oklahoma City, but let's be real about the downsides:
Some areas are rundown
Limited nightlife
Crime in certain neighborhoods is a real concern
Don't get me wrong, it's still a great place overall. But people should know what they're getting into.

Weather is the biggest factor for us. Four seasons are nice, not too extreme either way.

Coming from Philadelphia, the cost of living difference is noticeable. Groceries and gas are cheaper.

Check out the Old Town area. Way more affordable and still close to everything.

Great post! One thing I'd mention is check out the local Facebook groups for neighborhood info. Makes a big difference.

Don't sleep on Maple Heights. It's up and coming and still affordable.

Respectfully disagree about the cost of living assessment. In my experience, there are good opportunities if you network.
