Oklahoma City is the state of Oklahoma’s largest city and also the eight largest city in the United States by land area. The city is known for its modern metropolitan flair with a low cost of living, as well as its industries of livestock, oil, and gas. It is also home to Tinker Air Force Base, the U.S. Department of Transportation Mike Moroney Aeronautical Center, and several colleges and universities.

Oklahoma has been honored as one of the best cities to move to. Other recognitions include Oklahoma City as one of the most affordable places to live, one of the best places for military retirees, and even one of the best baseball cities.

As an oil and gas hot spot, the Oklahoma housing market is seeing the effects of low oil prices. While the average home sale price has dropped over the past year, they are still well above 2014 prices. The market is still showing other healthy signs as well, including a drop in the number of days homes are available on the market. As the market continues to boast affordable homes and stability from Tinker Air Force Base and Boeing Aerospace, Oklahoma City remains a good place to buy or sell a home. In fact, Oklahoma City was recently named the best city for first time home buyers.

While the Oklahoma City housing market remains healthy today, that could change tomorrow.
