Ask me any question about Lawton, OK.

[PatoLiza]

Thanks for your unconditional offer to answer questions for those who need unbias answers about Lawton-it's safety, school, etc... I was tickled to see that you mentioned a positive note about Cache School. I found out that residents on the West side of Lawton (i.e. Pecan Valley South) are zone for Cache School District. There is a neighborhood called Shelter Lake on that side of Lawton. Do you have any information on the depths of the lakes and if they ever dry up during drought season? Also, do you know of honest home builders in the area? Also, I have been reading Cameron University's website but I didn't get any info on children's string orchestra (after school hours.) Is it safe at night by the University? Thanks again and looking forward to hearing from you.

Lawton cant be all that bad. It was chosen over many cities in OK for the CBA Calvary team which is very significant.

Hi deannahndrsn! We live in Duncan but go shopping in Lawton frequently... Here are some other (more recent) threads about Lawton/Ft. Sill, hopefully you can find some good info in these:

Fort Sill bound

PCSing to Ft sill...help??

Ft Sill Bound: Need Help

If you have specific questions that aren't covered in those threads I would suggest starting one of your own in the regular Oklahoma State section of the forum. Oklahoma Forum - Relocation, Moving, Local City Discussions - City-Data Forum Best of Luck!

Thanks, LR! Thread is moved.

Lawton, like many cities, will have its up and down sides. Although it's in a semi-desert environment, it is a very beautiful area with the Wichita Mountains nearby. Low humidity is a plus too. I could enjoy living in the Lawton area very much.

Are you Claudia's husband?

I am looking for a native Lawton resident/s who can tell me about a particular builder in the area. We are looking at houses (existing and under construction) and we are wondering how reputable this particular builder is. I am trying to respect privacy and obey the rules of this forum. So if you are a lifetime resident of Lawton, would you e-mail me directly if you have first hand knowledge of builders in the area. Thanks in advance and looking forward to hearing from you.

I am getting ready to move to Lawton,Ok/ the Forst Sill ARMY base to live with my Brother who is in the ARMY and with my sister. I am going to be looking for a new job as well as somewhere to stay after I have stayed with them for a short time. Is there anyway to get a link to search for housing or jobs availiable in this area?

[LadyRobyn]

Hi Dustirose!

Try this link for jobs: Oklahoma Job Link You can choose which town to search in, and what type of work you would like.

A link to housing is a little more difficult. It might be easier to look for a place once you get here...most rentals are listed in local papers or just by a sign out front. You might be able to find something in the Lawton Newspaper though: Lawton Constitution

Good Luck!
