Midwest City was founded in 1942 by W. P. "Bill"
Atkinson, a prominent businessman and builder in Oklahoma.
The name Midwest City confuses some people because Midwest
City is not in the mid west. The name actually has its
roots with Tinker Air Force Base, originally called
Midwest Air Depot.
Back in 1951, Midwest City was honored as "America's
Model City." Today, Midwest City holds official
designations of "Tree City USA" and "Certified
City". A community of 25 square miles, Midwest
City's southern boundary is adjacent to Tinker Air Force
Base with 4 gates that lead directly onto the Base.
A warm and friendly atmosphere created by the citizens
and a quality of life, which places family first, defines
the community. It is a special place to live. Located
in Central Oklahoma, Midwest City serves as the economic
trade center for Eastern Oklahoma County and is conveniently
close to metropolitan area amenities.
