Lawton, Oklahoma is purely pathetic. If Big Government ever decided to permanently close Fort Sill (military base), the native people would either become cannibals or become America's least competitive farmers. I've been thinking about doing something to add some fun for the children of the city, but I think children are more safe staying ...
A cultural rich community with a great community theatre, active opera guild, and orchestra. The museums are fantastic. The cannon walk at Fort Sill and stockade where famous and infamous people were held is a must see. The construction and plans for downtown development leave one with the impression even better things are to come. Wind surfing ...

We have only been here since August, and only because he was stationed here, and not by choice. He was advised when he signed up for the army that he would have COD (choice of duty) which panned out to be a crock of shi* just like everything else the recruiter lied to us about; but thats another story in itself.
This is such a po dunk little town with nothing in it! I'm from San Diego and like most of the unfortunates Igot stuck here because my husbands in the Army. If it weren't for the military there would be a population of 25. It's extremely nasty, nothing scenic, crappy homes, no shopping, low class, country, high crime (I've had my ...

There are a few things that will keep adults entertained but kids will get bored out of their head! The only safe place is on Fort Sill. On Fort Sill there are a couple of enjoyable attractions. ...

The Pitts Avoid if you can
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/09/08
This town doesn't deserve even one star. Due to the military I have been stationed at Fort Sill off and on since 2000 and not by choice. If there is anyway you can avoid Lawton do it. Lawton has the highest crime rate in Okalahoma and last time I checked it has over 130 gangs. It is a run down dirty city with bad roads. With absolutely ...

Where can our teens go?
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/26/07
we have so many teenagers in Lawton,Oklahoma...but nowhere for them to hang out. Sure the movies are fun, but what about those teens who dont have the money for it? We had a skating rink, ut that was turned into a church, now our teens of today in Lawton have no where to go to hang out and have fun, without spending their paychecks, or even worse, their parent's.

Not Much Here
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/16/07
We were moved here by the military about 2 years ago. So far the only think we have found that we like to is go to the casino. But we also have a young child and there is nothing for us to do that he would have fun with. We do go to the water park and the lakes, but you can only do that so much till we all get bored. The parks around town are old ...
