Incorporated as a city in 1910, today more than 20,000 people call the 5.2 square miles of Bethany their home. Nestled between Wiley Post Airport to the north and Lake Overholser on the west, Bethany maintains a feeling of small-town charm and a close-knit community. The home of Southern Nazarene University and Southwestern Christian Univeristy, as well as the National Pinto Horse Association and the International Pentecostal Holiness Church, it maintains its own unique identity within the metro area.
Annual events like the Independence Day Freedom Festival, featuring crafters, entertainment, carnival rides, food, a huge parade and one of the largest fireworks displays in the State bring the local citizens together in celebration.
