I am a Texan by birth but am living in Oklahoma temporarlily. Tulsa is much prettier than any big texas city, and the poverty rate in Oklahoma is not nearly as bad as Texas' (last I heard Texas has the worst poverty and pollution in the nation). Texans tend to have very backwards political views, even in "progressive" Austin. "Liberal" in Texas means you don't agree with the execution of mentally retarded people, oppose anti-sodomy laws, and don't think people should be allowed to carry around fully auto machine guns. The only substantive difference between OK and TX is that TX has about 28 million people, and Oklahoma little over 3 million.
Prettier than Texas for the most part, much more mountainous on average. Nicer lakes. More of a "western", forward-looking political spirit than the arrogant, backwards political paradigm in Texas.

OK! as in Oklahoma is OK. The crossroads of America and a beautiful state to live in. Oklahoma is one of the most geographically diverse states containing 10 distinct ecological regions and the only state with 11 ecological regions existing within its borders. We have 4 mountain ranges and while they are not the size of the Rockies they are beautiful and much older. Oklahoma has the largest population of Native Americans and combined they speak 25 native languages. A wonderful state to raise your children in and where your children learn how to be self sufficient not from being told how but by watching a state pull together in every tragedy that has come along be it natural disaster or a homegrown terrorist. Okies live together, work together, and help each other in good times a bad.
Oklahoma is OK!

The worst state in America. The weather is extremely hot in the summer, and bitterly cold in the winter. Storm season is hell with monster hail and record tornadoes. In all seriousness, the best comparison is a third world country in the middle east. Dry and barren, the infrastructure looks bombed out. Extremely religious. Oklahoma is a cultural wasteland. It's ironic that Oklahomans tout the Native American heritage when Oklahoma is where the natives were shunted to(Trail of Tears). So they didn't want to be there in the first place. Another thing about Oklahoma is that everything is dirty due to the red dirt that's on everything. The stores are dirty, the people are dirty, everything is just..dirty. Oklahomans will wax on and on about the bible and Jesus yet do everything opposite to it's teachings. The biggest lot of hypocrites you'll ever meet. The people are the other half of why Oklahoma is a garbage dump. Nowhere else will you meet such close minded, idiotic people. They have no concept of how the world works or are aware of anything outside of Oklahoma. Worse still, they take pride in these qualities. Beer is 3.2% alcohol so it's basically horse piss. Not even worth having a beer. Outdoors are a joke. If you are a single guy, best of luck to you. I personally wouldn't touch an Oklahoma broad. Most are single moms.
I'd love to live in Oklahoma, but I'm afraid I received a first world education and my interests in life extend beyond the Sooners and the bible.

Oklahoma is a state in the central south. Oklahoma is shaped like a pot and its panhandle has a flat elevation (aka mesa) called the Black Mesa. This state has 77 counties, one of which is at the tip of the panhandle called Cimarron County. Oklahoma borders Colorado, New Mexico, Kansas, and Texas. This state isn't as horrible as others say it is. However, Oklahoma is the state with the most obese people.
Oklahoma's 2010 census estimate was around 3,751,351.
It is said to be boring, small, and full of hillbillies. This is an OPINION. In my opinion, Oklahoma is filled with many people of many races and cultures, is small enough for a smaller amount of crime, and sometimes too dry. This doesn't mean it is always hot. It snows around every other year or two. Oklahoma's capital is Oklahoma city. For more information on Oklahoma visit Wikipedia. If you want facts don't trust ALL of these results.

People who say "Everyone in Oklahoma is a hillbilly- I have to live here!" insulted themselves because they are in Oklahoma.
"Labor Conquers All Things" is Oklahoma's motto.

A complete lie. Comparable to district 13 in Hunger Games, but backwards. All of Oklahoma has been destroyed by tornadoes, and any footage you see of it is faked in another place or soundstage. 95% of people here are utter assholes that don't respect people with little money and suicidal tendencies. All of the roads are shut, and many car companies create special "Oklahoma Edition" trucks to handle them. There are more earthquakes here than in a 10 mile radius of a strip club on fat women's night during a lap dance. There is also no thought for teachers, as most work two jobs, and the state government is 80% privately educated, and everyone making six figures a year tell the teachers to shut up and leave. Because all the government cares about is sports, drivers ed is not available in many schools, but the signs for driver's ed parking are still there because, as stated earlier, the school can't afford to take them out unless a poorly educated driver (99% of them) take it out while snapchatting.
