Did OKC go out of the way to turn this rude reputation around?

Probably not. All the same, I don't think many people really took the rude reports to be serious. I mean, you've been to OKC before, and while you may or may not have had the most polite encounters with the capital city locals, it's hard to believe it would be considered rude.

Full disclosure, when driving in 89'ers traffic, all bets are off and horns are perfectly acceptable means of communication... normally reserved for the slowpoke drivers with Kansas and Texas tags.

The stats.

While there can still be room for improvement, OKC was named as the tenth "least rude" city in America.

If you're curious, Omaha, Nebraska was ranked #1. You can see the full write-up about it if you want here.
