Methodology: How we determined the boring cities in the Sooner State

You would present the following case to your friends if you were argueing with them at a bar about the most boring place to live in Oklahoma. And that’s why we call it Saturday Night Science.

Because our data speaks more truth than feelings.

To figure out how boring a place is, we factored in things we generally think make people exciting, and then we figure out which cities have the least number of those exciting people.

We used the U.S. American Community Census data to gather the information presented here. HSome of the things people tend to think of as making a city’s population boring include:

  • % of Population Over 25 (higher is more boring)
  • % of Married Household (higher is more boring)
  • Average Age (higher is more boring)
  • % of Households With Kids (higher is more boring)
  • Population density (lower is more boring)

Then, our algorithm generates a ranking for each place in these categories. After crunching the numbers, all of the cities ranked from most boring to most exciting.

For this ranking, we used every Oklahoma city with at least 5,000 residents. This keeps us from prejudicing our rankings by including very small pockets of retired people.

Grab your rocker and hold on.

We updated this article for 2026, and it’s our eleventh time ranking the most boring cities in Oklahoma.

There You Have It – Now That You’re Asleep

On a ranking like this, there are usually no winners, but since Oklahoma isn’t necessarily the most boring state in the United States, the cities on this ranking can at least take solace that there are, in fact, more boring cities in the country.

The most boring cities in Oklahoma are Blanchard, Tuttle, Newcastle, Piedmont, Choctaw, Duncan, Noble, Verdigris, Collinsville, and Lone Grove.

If you’re also curious enough, here are the most exciting places in Oklahoma, according to science:

  1. Stillwater
  2. Tahlequah
  3. Warr Acres
