    "very college oriented town, lots of farmers markets and breweries! safe and quiet mostly year round, students can cause an increase in music heard in the evenings but OU does not get out of control like it used to years ago. plenty of nature and wildlife around as well, you’ll be surprised at just how often you get to see deer in your own backyard!
