Life in Cushing - 2/18/2009
Unlike some of the other uneducated people who have access to the internet, I love living in Cushing. I have a 12yr. old and a 9yr. old. They love living in Cushing. We have never had any bad experiences. This is a small town, with a small town mentality. The majority of the people are very welcoming. We have a Supercenter and plenty of other shopping in our area. Our dining choices, although too few, are all good establishments. There are many people willing to help one another, and you will never go hungry here. There are a few people here that do not know how to make the best out of life, but for the most part we are a good little town, with lots of welcoming

Life in Cushing Ok. - 7/30/2007
The Kids here have nothing to do, Except the pool in the summer. So, at about 12 years old they make a big day of planning a fight in the park.And then as they grow into teenagers they learn that if they stay high enough then they won't care anymore that they have nothing at all to do. If someone is reading this because they plan to move here then my warning is don't, but you will probably never see this, it will be deleted before you get a chance because Cushing ok. likes to keep it's dirty little secretes quiet here. In fact, most of the time we don't even get news reports about things going on in our own town! We have to guess at which rumar may be the correct one, until we get enough information to make up our minds on what really happened within our town.And the news paper office does not send out weekend reporters so if something happens on the weekend, it will never be reported! And the rich business owners here do not want newcomers to bring business competion so new business
