Review of Duncan, Oklahoma


terrible place for a single professional
Star Rating - 7/25/2010
Duncan is a terrible place for a single professional. All the 35-40 yr.old women here are grandmothers. THere is a high rate of teenage pregnancy and alcoholism. There is a huge trash problem with illegal dumping. People here know nothing but junk food and a sedentary life. It's boring, unsafe, and just miserable here. It's been in the mid-upper 90's and humid for the past 10 weeks...the weather is awful. I've heard more stories from my patients and customers about family members being murdered by other family members. People are too gun crazy here. People are crazy in general. I can't wait to get out!

Peg Mitchel. Geeze louise, why in the hell do you move to Duncan? Didn't you investigate it? Why put down a place if you plan on leaving anyhow? Didn't it ever occur to you that your comments might be offending some of the folks who live there? I do not. I live in a small town just north of Tucson, but am thinking about moving to Duncan. Sperlings ranks Oracle (the town my wife and I have lived in for the last 28 years) it 84 out of 100 in the comfort index. Lots of artists and libs. So am I. So what. There is no water. You have to drive a minimum of 2 hours to the nearest lake or river. There is a meth problem just about everywhere now. Worse than that is the heroin problem. But whether it is Duncan or somewhere else, life is what you make it. (Thank you Ginger Thornton)
