Community Information

A Catholic church is in our neighborhood, and I would bet a good number of neighbors are Catholic. I find community several miles away, closer to downtown, in arts districts. We make use of a decent neighborhood park, but it could be better. Another park within walking distance has so much litter, it’s hazardous to our toddler. Lots of people here have kids, and a good number of people take walks but keep to themselves. There isn’t a library nearby, but I frequently go to the closest ones.

Many of my neighbors are immigrants, and many speak Spanish as their first language. I moved here in my mid-30s as a single professional working for a low-paying nonprofit, and now I have a family. Others in my neighborhood are like my family, too. People here are usually friendly. We take pride in our homes, even if they’re not the fanciest.

My neighborhood is what I would consider to be near downtown/central OKC (10 minutes by car—an easy commute to work), but we’re west of I-44 and thus, lumped into far western OKC and much more suburban areas. I work at a university 2.5 miles away, and so do some of my nearby neighbors. Other neighbors work in education, construction, IT, and customer service.

I am worried about the quality of schools here. This feels like an urban neighborhood, but I often don’t feel represented politically—I feel like we’d fit better with the urban core districts.
