One acre still isn't much. I live on 35 acres and wish I had more.
I hear ya , Mustang, Luther and such were country when I was growing now they are just the outskirts of OKC. Harrah, and out that way is still a little country. I grew up north and east of Thunderbird lake , still pretty country out there. We had 10 acres and the best part I remember was sitting out against a tree and hearing nothing but locusts frogs and birds!! Peaceful!!I get what you mean but that is not the case.
My goal is not to live next to some compressor station 30 minutes north of Atoka, if that's what it truly means to be "in the country".
However, I think it would be advantageous to be outside of the turnpike loop, since as OKC grows it will quickly fill up the space to that point. Just this weekend I rode through Harrah to see what it was like, and there's some acreages out there that looked alright. So something along these lines.
Get a generator that runs on propane!!Point noted. More is better. When you lose electricity service due to weather, how quickly does the utility company repair the lines?
That IS what country living is. Dirt blows. Tumbleweeds blow. Dirt blows again. Smells blow to you or away depending on wind direction.1/2 acre and country that's funny.. I have no crystal ball but if a person doesn't have a spot of dirt now attaining one in the future is going to be very costly.. Chicken **** , cow farts, pig pens and people shooting guns is what we have to put up with.. Yes I burn my burnable trash too.. On a cool note we have a building where I can become Rooftop Korean..
Something like that. Still mulling over my options.. no commitments to anything in particular yet.
It sure isn’t. I keep thinking of how much I want to look for when it comes time to build in a few years, the number keeps going up.One acre still isn't much. I live on 35 acres and wish I had more.
Also if it matters to you also make sure you find out what your internet and telephone options are. Not everywhere has cell coverage or internet.
Satellite internet isn't cheap or reliable. And speed isn't very good.
If you are on a main line, pretty quick. If you are on the end of the line it can be 2-5 weeks.Point noted. More is better. When you lose electricity service due to weather, how quickly does the utility company repair the lines?
