Edmond: University Suburb North of the Capital
Edmond was founded in 1889 as a stop on the Santa Fe Railroad, and a post office opened there the day of the Land Run of April 22 that year. The city sits immediately north of Oklahoma City and has grown into one of the wealthier suburbs in the state, with median household incomes well above the Oklahoma average. The population has roughly doubled since 1990.
The University of Central Oklahoma, founded in 1890 as Territorial Normal School, enrolls around 14,000 students and is the oldest public institution of higher learning in the state. Its Jazz Lab performance venue has hosted national touring acts since opening in 2002. The city's historic downtown along Broadway preserves several early-twentieth-century commercial buildings, including the 1889 schoolhouse that now serves as a museum.
Arcadia Lake, a 1,820-acre reservoir east of town, was completed in 1986 and serves as a flood control and recreation site. The Route 66 corridor passes through northeast Edmond near the Round Barn in Arcadia, a 1898 structure restored in the 1980s.
