There's one topic that always seems to be hot in the minds of anyone looking to move to Oklahoma. Maybe it starts when we're kids, watching the classic ‘Wizard of Oz‘ or maybe it's the images on the news, and the unknown that fosters the fear. Whatever the cause, it seems that almost every buyer I've ever worked with, who's relocating here from out of state, has had a very healthy fear of tornadoes.
It's actually the second thing out of their mouths many times. "How are the schools here" is often followed with "Does this house have a tornado shelter?" I can't say I blame them. It's probably the same apprehension I'd be feeling if I were moving to LA, after seeing earthquakes and riots on the news for all these years.
Truth is though, tornadoes aren't nearly as frequent here in Oklahoma as it may seem from the outside looking in...
