Moore, named after a Santa Fe railroad
employee, began as a small town on the
Oklahoma prairie. Today, we are one of the
fastest growing communities in the Oklahoma
City area. We pride ourselves on being a
large city, population of over 51,000, with that
small town feel. A place where neighbors
care about neighbors and visitors are always
welcome. |

Construction of new retail
and restaurant businesses is at an all-time
high. Residential construction is booming as
well. In 2007, there were 563 single-family
permits granted, this is 71% higher than in
2000. There have been several new hotels open in
the last few years as well. Add all
this up and it makes Moore a premier place
to eat, shop, work…live!
