Pontotoc County’s city of Ada is located 83 miles southeast of downtown Oklahoma City, the state’s capitol. Ada was founded in 1889 as a hub for mail couriers. Since the city’s past as a town of 10 to its present population of 16,000, massive residential and commercial expansion has created an attractive city in the southern portion of the state. Residents of an Ada house or apartment for rent can find work locally at major employers like Carl Albert Indian Hospital, DJK Enterprises, Flex-N-Gate Technologies, Holcim Cement, IRT, McCalls Communities, People's Electric Cooperative, Pre-Paid Legal Services, Robert S. Kerr EPA Water Research Laboratory, Solo Cup, Valley View Regional Hospital, and Wal-Mart instead of commuting into the capitol. The Ada Municipal Airport provides limited service to residents.
Residents of an apartment or house rental in Ada value the city’s nurturing energy, plentiful activities, and rich surroundings while maintaining a small-town feel. Ada’s rich history can still be viewed today at historical landmarks such as Bebee Field Round House, East Central State Normal School, Mijo Camp Industrial District, Pontotoc County Courthouse, Sugg Clinic, and Wintersmith Park Historic District. Local recreational facilities include Matthews Park, Richardson Park, the Ada Tennis Center, and Glenwood Park in addition to a top-notch golf course at Oak Hills Golf and Country Club. The East Central University campus is also located in Ada.
