I am assuming you mean Hindu Temples. Here is a link below that describes the OKC Hindu Temple. It would be within easy driving distance from your office area.

Hindu Temple of Oklahoma City, Home Page



I don't know if there is an Indian neighborhood. Here is the closest grocery store I can find. Spices of India

There are some fairly nice apartments near that grocery store. My son used to live in one of them, and the rents were reasonable.

Hi Thank you so much for your response

two more questions.
1. how much is going to be for an auto insurance (camry car 2003 model) and health insurance (family with 1 kid)?

2. how is the whether compared to CA? (my son is just 1 year old, so thinking it this good idea to move there or not)

Thanks
Ram

Hi Ram!
This link is about insurance. This might give you an idea.
Oklahoma City car insurance Oklahoma
In Oklahoma, we diffently have 4 seasons! It can get HOT in the summer and COLD in the winter! And, it's windy here too (not all days, but some of the days.) It does snow & ice here, and rains - this year we had a very rain-y season. This a link that will show our 7 day forecast...

I don't how Oklahoma and California compare as far as health insurance costs. If you don't have health insurance through your employer, it will be expensive anywhere!

I have heard that car insurance is cheaper in Oklahoma than in California.

You might check on line with Blue Cross Blue Shield for health insurance.

I've got relatives in OKC -- they love the place. You will, too! Always a joy for me whenever I visit.
