Located in north central Oklahoma, and easy drives from Oklahoma City, Tulsa,
Kansas City and Dallas, Stillwater provides college-town atmosphere with
big-city access.
As the northern most school in the South Division, Oklahoma State is the most
centrally located campus in the Big 12 Conference. And because of its location,
OSU arguably has the league’s easiest road
trips for both its teams and fans, when traveling to face either North or South
Division foes.
Stillwater is a rapidly growing city of 47,000 and is near the geographic center
of the country. The U.S. Census Bureau recently named Stillwater as the fastest
growing city in the state of Oklahoma. Often called Oklahoma’s premier education
community, Stillwater is the home of some of the region’s finest education and
training institutions, including Oklahoma State University, Meridian Technology
Center, Northern Oklahoma College/OSU Gateway, and one of the nation’s top rated
public school systems.
With such a strong commitment to education, it’s easy to see why Stillwater’s
educational attainment is among the highest in the nation, with 48 percent of
its residents holding bachelor’s degrees or higher. The city is the micropolitan
anchor for the state’s technology triangle that includes Oklahoma City and
Tulsa.
The “college town” atmosphere lends itself to a variety of recreational
opportunities. Year-round arts and cultural events appeal to many different
audiences and feature music, dance, theater, festivals, lectures, and concerts.
A youthful community demands the best in fitness centers, spas, parks and
recreational opportunities.
And for the outdoor enthusiast, nearby lakes provide a quiet respite at the
city’s edge, sparkling in 234 days of annual sunshine.
After a day of work or play, residents and visitors often relax in one of the
many restaurants or night spots that offer everything from barbecue to fine
dining, and blues to bluegrass. Stillwater’s retail districts feature a unique
shopping experience where you’ll find museums, galleries, and shops with
personality. OSU athletic events attract more than 600,000 fans to Stillwater
annually.
OSU has been called the “University of Golf,” and the five-star Karsten Creek,
home of the 10-time national champion Cowboy golf team and perennial top-10
women’s program, ranks with such well-known courses as Pebble Beach. It’s one of
several public and private courses that prompted Golf Digest to call the
Stillwater area among the “Top 10 Places in America to retire and play golf.”
Stillwater is one of America’s safest cities, with a crime rate far below the
U.S. average and Oklahoma State University has been considered the safest campus
in the Big 12 Conference since the league’s inception.
Security also comes in the form of great health care services, centered around
Stillwater Medical Center’s state of the art facilities. And with a cost of
living that averages more than 10 percent below the U.S. average, the dollar
buys more.
Whether you’re here for a short time or a lifetime, you’ll want to stake your
claim in one of America’s great university cities… Stillwater, Oklahoma! |
Founded in 1884, Stillwater offers a classic college-town atmosphere, and
big-city access with Oklahoma City and Tulsa just an hour away.
