Sheperd Hill Area
We are getting ready to move from Bend, OR to OKC and are looking for the right area. We definitely would love to have some downtown culture feel but want to be in a safe area. Looking at a place in the Sheperd Hill area and was looking for some help. Thanks!
Also.. Any importance on having a storm shelter???

NW 27TH St.
The 2200 block of 27th st is what I am wondering about. The street view on google looks like many nicer well kept older homes. Curious about the surrounding blocks and the Swatek Park area. After looking at Google, I guess it is the Sheperd Mall area.
Thanks for any help!

2700 block of 27th is not to bad, but, the shepard hills area (north of 23rd & penn)is a lot safer. The Shepard Mall area is very nice. Just my opinion, of course. |

that area is undergoing gentrification and the housing is really nice. I love the old style houses and it seems a lot of the residents that are moving in are taking very good care of and upgrading the houses. I would MUCH rather live there than in one of those new soul less tract subdivisions being built in the bedroom communities.

I have been hearing alot about Mesta Park. Does anyone know of any rentals within Mesta Park or how to find out about one? Not having much luck on Craigslist or on the net.
Thanks for all of the help!

Tough to find a rental. You might check out some near the Paseo (north of Mesta Park), but it is still hit and miss on certain streets. Many of these areas are up and coming. Good luck. Hope OKCtalk helped.  |
