Age Demographics of OKC Talk

[windowphobe]

59 is the new 39.

[Plutonic Panda]

82 come March, going on 30 (mentally) but sometimes feel 182 (physically).

Glad to see you still kicking it! Mah great grandmother lived to be 99 so that was pretty cool. Haha

[Tritone]

Looks like I'm 56 in more ways than one.

Strange that we have so many more in the 30-40 and 50-60 range than 40-50.

But it also shows the wide distribution of ages here, which is really cool.

There are probably just as many 40-50 here ... perhaps all their bandwidth is going to their teens and they haven't seen the poll yet.

My great grandpa is 82 and alive and well. In perfect health, just has those joint problems.

I am guessing is is a mix of internet usage tends to be highest in the 20 - 35 range and the bottom of the population valley between baby boomers and their children is around 40 years ago

Or...the folks in their forties don't want to say they are over forty. When we hit fifty we just give in and admit it.

As a young woman, I admired the beautiful women with smooth, dewy skin; long, thick hair and big eyes. Long legs and an hourglass figure was a huge plus.
I've reached the point where hard and lean, no matter the shape is looking like a harder (better) goal to reach and am just giving up on the dewy skin. Fortunately, the long thick hair and at least half of the hourglass figure remains. When did I quit yearning for thin thighs and start wanting some muscle to hold together the knee joint?

57 here - 58 in March and eligible right now for full retirement after 35 yrs government service.
Being in the KMA club makes late 50's a great place to be!

[FFLady]

[RadicalModerate]

Dang. All of this is making me feel like an Elder Statesman . . .
So . . . How old would Soupy Sales be now? What about The Dude?

[ShiroiHikari]

[skanaly]

I'm 17! A youngin, but very much interested in Urban planning and development!

[Just the facts]

43 and I am starting to feel old. My knees hurt, I started wearing reading glasses, and I am making noises when I get out of the lazy boy. I became officially old when I put a basket on my bike. Next week the State of Florida is making me exchange all of my white socks for black ones.

So as of today (January 22) the leading age group is 25-30. Would have never guessed it.

While its great that this board is so diverse, I think its fantastic how well we Gen-Y'ers are represented on here. This is really indicative of where OKC is right now as a city. Lots of cities of similar size would KILL for this level of interest from the younger generation.

[MadMonk]

I had a "senior moment" and chose the 30-40 range by accident. I'm 45.
Or maybe I'm subliminally in denial.

[RadicalModerate]

There ain't nothin' "subliminal" about it at all, amigo . . .
Enjoy being 45. I've been 45 1.3 times. So I know . . . =)
Oh! To those of you with "annoying" kids from 3 to 8 . . .
Treasure each moment. Really. (They go by really, really fast).
