The name Oklahoma comes from the language of the Choctaw people, who came in the 1830s. Okla roughly means "the people" and homa means "red". Alternatively, this may be a French name: "Okla" is "ochre" and "homa" is "homme", as the Indians were known by Louisiana Cajuns.
Economy
Oklahoma is a major fuel and food-producing state. Thousands of oil and natural gas wells dot the Oklahoma landscape. Millions of white-faced beef cattle graze on Oklahoma's flat plain and low hills. Fertile fields produce vast crops of wheat. Its 1999 total gross state product was $86 billion, placing it 29th in the nation. Its 2000 Per Capita Personal Income was $23,517, 43rd in the nation. Its agricultural outputs are cattle, wheat, milk, poultry, and cotton. Its industrial outputs are transportation equipment, machinery, electric products, rubber and plastic products, and food processing.
Oklahoma City is the principal economic engine of the state, centered on the Finance, Retail, Governance, Entertainment, and Tourism sectors. The city has numerous manufacturing and processing plants as well as a growing Biotech center and a large Aviation market.
Oklahoma City is home to many corporate and regional headquarters including international giants Devon Energy, Kerr McGee, OGE Energy, Chesapeake Energy, Six Flags, Sonic, Local Financial, and Dobson Communications. The Oklahoma City Metropolitan Area is a growing Hi-Tech region and a major Distribution and Shipping point.
Tulsa is an Energy and Trade center and is a major Aerospace and Telecommunications market. The city is has the nation's most inland waterport. Major Companies based in Tulsa include Williams, Oneok, Wiltel, Quik-Trip, Mazzio's, Dollar=Thrifty, and Vanguard. Other major employers include MCI, TV Guide, SBC, DISH, DirecTV, USCellular, Cingular, Decision1, and Boeing. Tulsa is home to American Airlines maintenence center, the largest aircraft maintenance base in the world.
Rural flight
Oklahoma, in common with five other Mid-West states (Nebraska, Kansas, North Dakota, South Dakota and Iowa), is feeling the brunt of falling populations in many communities. 89% of the total number of cities in those states have fewer than 3000 people; hundreds have fewer than than 1000. Between 1996 and 2004 almost half a million people, nearly half with college degrees, left the six states. "Rural flight" has led to offers of free land and tax breaks as enticements to newcomers in some of these states.
The effects of rural flight in Oklahoma have mostly been felt in Western Oklahoma (those areas west of I-35).
