Economy

Oklahoma boasts a diverse economy with a Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of roughly $215 billion. Once deeply reliant on fossil fuels and agriculture, the state has actively diversified over the past few decades.

The cost of living is consistently ranked among the lowest in the United States, making housing and daily expenses highly affordable. While the median income is slightly below the national average, purchasing power remains strong. Major economic engines include the Oklahoma City and Tulsa metropolitan areas, which have seen significant revitalization and tech-sector growth. Looking forward, the state is investing heavily in renewable energy, aerospace expansion, and tech startup incubation.
