Kingston, OK
Best Kept Secret - Kingston OK -
10/20/2015Kingston Oklahoma. Being a resident of Marshall county since 1997, I find it a great pleasant place to live. Moving here from Southern California, I found it to be peaceful, QUITE, and lacking the continuous police sirens, helicopters, and gunfire. Which is quite the opposite as the propaganda fed to people on the TV news. Oklahoma is an Open Carry state, for firearms. There is here little crime here, but again, I left California.
I have been in all states but FL and ME. The climate is less hot than Arizona and the winters are far better than Colorado. We do have some humidity, but nothing like in the deep south. Once you ween yourself from the A/C, the summers are not too hot, as others have posted. Kingston is almost in the center of the US, and a few hour trip to Texas, Kansas, Colorado, New Mexico, Missouri, Arkansas, and Louisiana. All great for vacations, without flying!
You might think about relocation here. The house I own would cost about 1 million dollars in California, but after 11 years, I owe only $30K and I am minutes from Lake Texoma.
Oh, correction as to the millage to Madill OK; The sign and my odometer both confirm 7 miles from Kingston to Madill. -Just Saying...
