Review Of Oklahoma by HomeSnacks User

I have lived in Sallisaw sense 1997. This town’s crime rate is not the best and housing is too high if your trying too buy a home. I will be the first too tell you that everybody is up in everyone else’s business and everybody is sleeping with everybody else’s wife. The good thing,s about Sallisaw is the Farmers market and Cruse night, diamond days and the ppl are both friendly and jerk’s. The casino is good for fun and there are places you can work such as slpt, avagen and celphom plus fast food restaurant,s. The view is beautiful and lake Tenkiller is not too far away neither is ft Smith Ark and there are lots off places too work. Every place has its own attitude and too know it you must first become part off it so good luck and may G*d Bless you on your journey where ever you decide too go.

Review Of Oklahoma by HomeSnacks User

Crime is relatively low. Most people think very black and white. Good luck finding thought provoking conversation. It usually doesn’t happen. There’s a college in town that’s okay. People are usually nice to your face. A few great people and a lot of backwards people. Not much to do here Definitely not the best in Oklahoma, but definitely not the worst.

Mainstreet Tavern, J Farley’s, The Belvidere Mansion, Claremore Lake. That’s about it.

How We Determined The Cities In oklahoma With The Largest Native American Population For 2020

We still believe in the accuracy of data — especially from the census. So that’s where we went to get the breakdown of race across oklahoma.

That lead us to the Census’s most recently available data, the 2014-2018 American Community Survey data from the US Census.

Specifically, we looked at table B03002: Hispanic OR LATINO ORIGIN BY RACE. Here are the category names as defined by the Census:

• Hispanic or Latino
• White alone*
• Black or African American alone*
• American Indian and Alaska Native alone*
• Asian alone*
• Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander alone*
• Some other race alone*
• Two or more races*

Our particular column of interest here was the number of people who identified as American Indian and Alaska Native alone.

We limited our analysis to places with a population greater than 5,000 people. That left us with 73 cities.

We then calculated the percent of residents that are American Indian and Alaska Native. The percentages ranked from 42.28% to 0.08%.

Finally, we ranked each city based on the percent of American Indian and Alaska Native population with a higher score being more American Indian and Alaska Native than a lower score. Anadarko took the distinction of being the most American Indian and Alaska Native, while Guymon was the least Native American city.
