In a recent citizen satisfactory survey, 85% of Oklahoma City residents agree the city is moving in the right direction and is a great place to work, live and raise a family. Residents agree the city is above national standards when it comes to city services. So, of course, I have to pass this along to let everyone know there is another good reason to buy a home in Oklahoma City.
The quality of the city's customer service was ranked 24% above the national average. City services were ranked 18% above national average and almost all Oklahoma City residents are satisfied with the quality of utilities, fire, police, ambulance, parks and recreation programs and facilities.
The city's streets were ranked the highest priority for three years in a row. Public transit was ranked the highest priority for two years in a row. Also, most residents agree to pay an extra $4 a month on their water bill to help make ambulance service more affordable and avoid out of pocket expenses.
This is only the third year the ETC has conducted the citizen satisfaction survey, which is done in June and July. The surveys response rate was only 40%, so hopefully, we can get the word out and have more Oklahoma City residents participate next year.
