I don't know what you're talking about. Oklahoma ranks in the bottom ten in multiple quality of life factors. It is one of the worst states for women, as an example. Maybe folks here are so used to being in the bottom they don't see the problem.

But, to challenge what you're saying about demographics, Oklahoma is not growing outside of the two metro areas, with OKC leading the way. Numerous rural counties are losing population.
