I would guess considering that most of the homes in my neighborhood are 450k to 1.2m that we are probably contributing more in property taxes than we are using. I would love to have a fire hydrant anywhere near my property to make my house insurance go down but the city doesn't provide us that either. (not even on 104th which is the road adjacent to airport on south side)
    That's interesting you never see OKC police, but instead Deputies. I know I essentially live down the road from you, but I see a couple of OKC police officers each week. I know one lives in the neighborhood beside me and the other closer to County line and 104th. With that being said I've never seen a Cleveland County deputy in this area, for that matter west of I44. The only deputy I've seen is the gentleman that lives on the corner of Council and 104th that is actually an Oklahoma county deputy.

    There are a lot of OKC officers in the neighborhood off of 89 and Council and one north of 89th and Rockwell. I suspect they all come and go on the north side of the airport as it would be the more direct route to most of the stations. I am never seen a Cleveland County Deputy on 104...just OK County which is probably the one at 104/Council

    Yeah the OK County deputy is always doing strange stuff. He sits in his driveway and turns on his lights as you pass. He shined his spotlight into my wifes car one night as we were stopped at the sign. I kind of think he is one of those that enjoys his powers a little too much cause I don't believe he can pull people over in Cleveland county.

    Glad they're there.
