Native crafts and cultural demonstrations happen daily, with inimitable handmade goods appearing at weekend fairs and farmer's markets.

Route 66 is perhaps the best-known highway in America.

There's also a beer garden and specials offered by the nearby restaurants. You will want to keep coming back again and again.

- Exceptional Cost of Living for Several Years Running
With about 13,000 permanent residents as of 2021, Miami, Oklahoma, has been lauded by local homeowners for a highly affordable cost of living combined with excellent municipal services. Recent research demonstrates that, side by side with comparable communities, Miami has lower costs in key areas, including housing, utility, groceries, transportation, and even the big one: Healthcare.
- Excellent Educational Opportunities All Throughout Life
No matter whether you prefer a public or a private school, you will find dozens of options catering to students of all ages in Miami. Continuing education also abounds, thanks in large part to the presence of Northeastern Oklahoma A&M College. Operating since 1919, this stellar public community college, lovingly referred to as "NEO," has degree and certificate programs for adults and traditional students.

With its wealth of self-paced and professional walking tours, Miami invites you to become part of its rich history.
