Review of Lawton, Oklahoma


Lawton
Star Rating - 4/8/2009
Lawton is considered by many people to be a small town. Small city is a more appropriat term. It covers more than 75 square miles of land with a population of more 90000, but people make it out like it's a real life modern day Mayberry. Don't get me wrong there are better and bigger places. I have to disagree that there is nothing to do there. I can give a list of places. Mcmahon auditorium, Great Plains coloseum, 2 parks with a duck pond, Cameron University stadium, 3 movie theaters, minature golf and regular golf, park with tennis court, disc golf, and track, Central mall, Native sun water park, several recreation centers, lots of restaurants, 2 Super Wall Marts, an exceptional amount of clubs, 2 bowling alleys, skating rink, YMCA, Lawton speedway, and to say the least a park for every single residential area. If you're military your probably familiar with a place called Hinesville, Ga. 16 square mi. hole of 30000 with nothing to do but go to bars, has only one park, and every thing else is drinking.
