Community Life
Hobart is a friendly, down-home community in the heart of southwest Oklahoma, 40 miles south of I-40 on U.S. 183. The Wichita Mountains frame the southeast horizon and the Quartz Mountains the southwest.
Fields of golden wheat surround the city in the summer, and acres of cotton blend with pastures of grazing cattle to form a placid picture of yesteryear still alive in today's world.
In Hobart, downtown streets are shaded by trees and benches allow for leisurely visits. Booths at the corner drugstore and the deli buzz with news from morning coffee drinkers. Church bells still ring for Sunday worship.
There are no traffic jams, but locals have to travel only an hour and 45 minutes to be a part of a large city.
But just because we're laid-back doesn't mean we're not up-to-date and competitive in today's market.
Community Works
A strong City Government, an excellent hospital and medical facilities, and a competent, modern school system place the Hobart community ready and eager to grow in population and size in the coming years.
It requires better than average police and fire departments to provide protection for community citizens. Hobart has them. It requires an adequate water supply. Hobart's supply exceeds expectations. It requires a health program for young and old. Hobart not only has private physicians and dentists, but also visiting specialists from many fields.
Schools from pre-K through High School provide the best in education with computer classes keeping stride with "reading, writing and arithmetic."
And we can't forget the stores, the Main Street Programs, and housing--all a part of the inner, vital workings of a community.
