About Oklahoma

Oklahoma, often referred to as the “Sooner State,” is a diverse and culturally rich state located in the southern region of the United States. Known for its sweeping prairies, Native American heritage, and a blend of modern cities and rural charm, Oklahoma offers a unique combination of history, natural beauty, and vibrant communities.

Oklahoma is home to a rich Native American heritage, with several tribes having historical ties to the region. The state’s history includes the forced removal of Native American nations along the Trail of Tears, and today, it is a center of indigenous culture and art.

Crimes Overview

Oklahoma’s murder crime rate is below the national average, and the state also reports lower rates of rape and assault crimes. Robbery is less of a concern as well, with a crime rate lower than the national average. However, Oklahoma faces challenges with kidnapping, burglary, and arson, all of which have rates higher than the national average. While vandalism is not a significant concern, theft and motor vehicle theft rates exceed the national average.

On the positive side, Oklahoma has a lower rate of identity theft. Nonetheless, drug offenses and weapon law violations are areas of focus, both surpassing the national average.
