Correct. I've always found it interesting that Oklahoma and Texas are probably the most integrated states in the union. Low housing prices and a tradition of "rootlesses" probably account for this.

Kind of odd, however, as the Okies who went to Southern California in the 1930s and 1940s had a reputation for being very racist. When I've been in Tulsa or OK City, I've always noticed blacks, whites, Hispanics, etc., often sharing the same neighborhoods.

The Okies weren't from the cities, but from rural areas.
