Interesting about Guthrie. It certainly looks bigger, but maybe it isn't. It is a beautiful historic town, many more blocks of it than what Tahlequah has in its 2 to 3 blocks. maybe Guthrie is 6 blocks square of historic. If you decide that town I would look for a house with a fallout shelter. In Tahlequah they don't have many homes with them because we don't get hit my them since we are in a valley, knock on wood. Guthrie is my kind of town though. But then I love Tahlequah and the people here, and I love the area a lot better with the rivers, a lot more trees, foothills to the Ozarks. Some do say that we are in the Ozarks, but others say "foothills." It is just more lush here.

I gave your address to a friend that knows some homeschoolers, but they don't know you so I am not sure if they will write or not. I did learn that there were several homeschoolers here.

For my money, the best towns in OK to live in would be Norman, Stillwater, and Tahlequah---better even than OKC or Tulsa. The big cities offer better restaurants and more places to shop, but the university towns offer a better, more diverse cultural mix.

I second everything he said!

My family and I are conidering moving to Talequah. What are the schools like? (hgh school) Are there jobs for drivers (CDL)? I would like to move there for so many reasons but one of the main reasons is because my children and I know very little about our culture and we need to get back to our roots..sort of speak.

I have seen that you are on a lot of forum here about tahlequah. My family will be moving here soon. And would like to know what is the best high speed internet service. From what i have read everything is over priced and very slow. And suggestion you can give would be greatly appreciated.

Tahlequah is one of the best Oklahoma college towns. The people there are not stuck on highly conservative Christian Right attitudes as they are in many other Oklahoma towns.
