Aging - 8/23/2008
As we Boomers age, Muskogee is a good place to live. It is small with relatively low crime. Housing costs are very low and if you move here from somewhere else your $$ will really stretch. Though there is not alot of things to do (but more is happening all the time) Tulsa is about 45 minutes away (which is like driving around a really large city). Tulsa has just about anything anyone would want and by living in Muskogee we avoid the problems that come with large cities. Muskogee is a very friendly town and people are very nice.[read more...] |

active midage couple seeking best of both worlds.. - 7/22/2008
We are a mixed couple (i am from Chicago and white, my wife from Texas is black), that seeks somewhat of a quiet living but likes parks, eating out, museums and such attractions, with friendliness and happiness abounding. Where we are now is sorely negative, and we miss smiling. I like the low cost of living a lot, and would need to probably work out of tulsa to give us the living we enjoy. How might the daily commute be?
I need to ask about our family makeup and how it is viewed, as honestly as possible, BEFORE we move further. Also, I think it is fair to ask about whether people behave themselves and self govern, or if there is a (possibly over)active police force. Kind of tired of speeding tickets...LOL.
Thanks for any help you can offer.[read more...] |

Home's are inexpensive here. Ranging from the low %40K to the high of %200K
crime is not bad, and the school's are good. Special education is wonderful.
A great example of housing cost is where we live.We ae a family of 4, we lease a home. Our home is a 4 bedroom 2 bath 2 story, the size is approx. 2,300 sq ft. Our payment is 500.00 a month. On our street the crime is ungeard of, we do not loack our door's at night. It's a nice big wonderful home..... You would enjoy Muskogee. We sure do. The average household income of a family of 4 is 1,200 a month. Upper middle income is around 2,500 a month, our retirement income is 3,700 a month, we are very comfortable.
