Oklahoma City
The Greater Oklahoma City region is always looking to the future for how it can make improvements on the quality of life for its residents. Healthy lifestyles raise the quality of living and help create a vibrant city. With nearly 250 days of sunshine a year and a growing number of parks, trails and sporting activities, Oklahoma City is the perfect place to maintain an active lifestyle. Oklahoma City residents can also find quality health care at almost three dozen hospitals. Low commute times and cost of living combined with quality education and healthcare makes for less-stress living. It is simply easy to live in Oklahoma City.
Oklahoma City has been a transportation and commercial hub in Oklahoma since before statehood in 1907. The City was settled in a single day when nearly 10,000 pioneers staked out territory in what is now Oklahoma City during the famous Oklahoma Land Run of 1889. The combination of the settlers with the large number of Native American tribes, many transplanted from around the country, has evolved into a unique cultural identity.
Incorporated in 1890, the City of Oklahoma City is a charter city and has had a Council-Manager form of government since 1927. The Mayor, elected at-large, leads a Council of eight members, each elected by ward. The Mayor and Council set overall policy and strategic priorities for the organization.
The City of Oklahoma City serves approximately 698,000 residents in a four (4) county, 621 square mile area.

Vital among the City’s assets are ample water supplies and its central location.

Oklahoma City Programs that make our City World Class
In December 2009, citizens approved MAPS 3, a seven-year, nine-month tax to fund eight new projects in the metro area. These include a 70-acre central park, a new rail-based streetcar system, a new downtown convention center, sidewalks throughout the City, 57 miles of new bicycle and walking trails, improvements along the Oklahoma River, health and wellness aquatic centers for seniors, and improvements to the fairgrounds. The estimated cost for all of these projects is $777 million.
In May 2016, the $45.3 million RIVERSPORT Rapids center opened to provide whitewater rafting and kayaking on an 11-acre facility adjacent to the Oklahoma River. The Center features world class rapids for elite athletes as well as recreational level opportunities for families. The City was designated as the U. S. Olympics Training Site for canoes, kayaks and rowing in July 2009 and hosted the U.S. Olympic trials for those sports in 2016 at the new RIVERSPORT Rapids center and the Oklahoma River. The Oklahoma River is the only river to have received this coveted designation and is being transformed into a world class competitive and recreation center.
In January of 2016, the City entered into an agreement with the State of Oklahoma and the Chickasaw Nation to complete the American Indian Cultural Center and Museum along the Oklahoma River. The Center will provide 85 acres of park space, with walking trails, interpretive art, and serve as a venue for native performers and educational exhibits.
In August 2017, citizens approved the Better Streets, Safer City bond and sales tax measure. The temporary penny sales tax took effect January 1, 2018, after the MAPS 3 tax expired, and it’s expected to generate about $240 million over 27 months: $168 million for street resurfacing, $24 million for streetscapes, $24 million for sidewalks, $12 million for trails and $12 million for bicycle infrastructure. The sales tax projects are joined by the other major Better Streets, Safer City initiatives: a 10-year, $967 million bond program (including $536 million for streets, bridges, sidewalks and traffic control), and a permanent ¼ cent sales tax for more police officers, more firefighters and day-to-day operations.
Currently the City is on iteration four of MAPS. (MAPS4) This initiative, approved by the voters in 2019, includes improvements to the downtown NBA arena and new event venues such as a Fairgrounds coliseum and a multi-purpose sports stadium. The program also includes 4 youth centers, 1 senior center, a new animal shelter, a civil rights center and innovation hall. There is also funding to construct a family justice center, diversion hub, mental health facilities and to provide for affordable housing. The program goes on to provide many community amenities such as beautification, improvements in neighborhood parks, trails, sidewalks, bike facilities, transit improvements, river enhancements and streetlights.

Bricktown
Bricktown
Just east of OKC’s downtown business district is Bricktown, the city’s original warehouse and distribution center turned entertainment district. Founded just days after the Land Run of 1889, Bricktown was, and still is, a central hub connecting not only railroads and highways, but local citizens and visitors.
This thriving urban district is home to more than 45 restaurants, bars, and retail shops, along with family-friendly attractions, public art, museums, galleries, and even an urban beach for summer fun. The diversity of businesses, educational institutions, housing and leisure activities in this area make it a true 24/7 destination, one of the most distinct and historic in OKC.
Just a short walk from downtown hotels, event venues and attractions, this former warehouse district is filled with restaurants, nightlife and entertainment options. From taking a cruise along the Bricktown Canal to catching an Oklahoma City Dodgers game at the Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark, Bricktown is a favorite destination for visitors and locals alike. Just north of Bricktown is historic Deep Deuce, where you can find more great restaurants and nightlife options. Bricktown has plenty of nightlife options, but we recommend the rock-and-roll dueling pianos of Michael Murphy’s. Part-concert, part comedy roast, this show is sure to have you rolling with laughter and tapping your toes to the request-driven music.

The Will Rogers World Airport Terminal Expansion Project was recently completed. Among other improvements, the $89 million project added six new airline gates, a consolidated security checkpoint and much-needed greeting lounge space. One highly anticipated feature is an observation area that will give non-ticketed visitors a place to view airplanes. A significant architectural public art project was incorporated in the terrazzo flooring and glass panels in the observation area. Construction was completed in 2022 for the first phase.
Scissortail Park provides citizens and visitors with a variety of recreation activities, including concerts, walking/biking/running trails, picnic sites, youth sports fields, play areas, public art, interactive water features, and outdoor education opportunities, in addition to promoting a more healthy lifestyle.
