Re: OKC Rankings
Well, now here is my problem. Oklahoma does have a national forest, three ancient and fascinating mountain ranges (ancient meaning hundreds of millions of years of erosion has reduced them to large but pretty hills), and just rolling terrain in general.
The problem is that people from out of state are not aware of what natural treasures we do have. All of our lakes are man-made, but that gives us plenty of water for recreational activities.
Heck, a simple glance of Oklahoma's terrain on Live Maps or Google Earth should be enough to tell these people that Oklahoma's terrain is really diverse.
But I don't buy the argument that the lack of population growth is due to flat terrain. Look at Dallas/Ft. Worth. DFW has the same exact terrain, same exact weather, same exact plant life and climate. Yet 6.5 million people live there. 1.2 million live in OKC. I don't buy the "lack of terrain" logic. That's a poor excuse.
Continue the Renaissance!!!
