FWIW - Falls Creek is in standby mode. They were expecting 3000 people, but no one ever showed up. FEMA told the Falls Creek volunteers that the facility wasn't needed at this time.

Most of the Refugees are URBAN folks. I'll bet they are holding out for an inner city home. The local bank has been cleaning up our "used to be" low income housing for some families and I'll bet no one shows up to live here. Fact is it is 35 miles to the nearest Walmart. Very rural/farm oriented neighborhood in SW Oklahoma that needs people but has hardly any jobs.
