Relocation from nashville, TN (Oklahoma City, Norman: apartments, hotels, travel)

[jaj2x]

Hello to all,
My name is Josh and my wife and I will be moving to OKC this summer for me to attend OKCU Law School. We've looked online and found some nice two bedroom apartments in the $600-$800 range. I was just hoping for some suggestions of places to check out, we would like to stay closer to downtown, but the suburbs would be fine too. Also, what areas are safe to life in, dog friendly communities, popular areas for younger married couples, etc. Also, looking for affordable hotels in downtown area that are clean and nice since we will be visiting in June. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance, Josh

Well there are literally thousands of residential units going up in the downtown area, but they may be a little pricey. And most of them are still being built.

New Residential Unit Census

Go there, it's a list of the ones completed and to be completed and from that page you can access other parts of the forum that will tell you all about the suburbs and downtown area.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help but I don't know too much about OKC (I know you're thinking, "I took info from this guy?") but all that link is, it goes to an Oklahoma forum, so surely you can find some help there.
