[QUOTE="BallisticBiker, post: 2746970, member: 7914"] I find it quite amusing that you would denigrate my home town while you list your location as "methcalister." On both forums, no less! lol I was born and raised here and wouldn't trade my upbringing for anything. That being said, it was boring as hell as a young adult on the chase of fun & frivolity, ergo, I moved to Arlington, Tx. when I turned 18. Once my wild oates had been sewn, I moved back here. I choose to live here vs. "being stuck" here. Like 2fer said, it's like any other smaller city. We have our positives, we have our negatives. Personally, I like the fact that it's a 15 to 20 minute drive to wherever you want to go, including the lake or the mountains or out to my buddy's private shooting range. Everybody says that the East side is the "nice" part of town yet there ain't but about two restaurants once you pass I44. haha Go West, young man. For a grand a month, you should easily find a nice house in one of several "good" neighborhoods. One of the negatives about being a smaller city is the fact that crime isn't isolated to any one area. Anybody could be a victim anywhere. Do people in OKC feel that they are untouchable by bad apples? Living in a big city never gave me that impression. I've lived all over Ft.Worth and in Los Angeles. Maybe I just missed it when they were passing out the shields of invincibility.... Lawton gets a bad rap, and it may have deserved it at one of several points. Personally, I think the city is trying to evolve and progress, to a certain extent. [/QUOTE]
