I've been trying to get out where I'm at for the last 10+ years. Finally the wife is on board but last year the Covid bug squashed the job market.
I may have a job opportunity in OK by transferring with my current employer. Although in it's complete infancy this could be our green light. On the surface it seems like a good move.
My son is 12 and I want to make sure he'll be in a good environment because the transition will be challenging for him. I'll be on the road a lot so I'm thinking someplace North of the city maybe around the Guthrie (North, East or West) area to find a home.
My office will be roughly 20 minutes South of Guthrie. I won't have to go there every day but it will probably involve a few trips weekly. So if I could keep the commute to 45 minutes or less that would be ideal. Also, I'm sure I'll have to venture into Oklahoma City and surrounding areas some what regularly.
I'm grateful for any help, thoughts and guidance. Getting out of the area were in is a priority for us but we don't want to be stuck in a miserable situation in OK either.
It looks like the population and economy are growing a bit there.
