Odessa is a booming oil town. Either the economy is good, or it’s not. There are a lot of workers here who come from across the country to find well-paying entry-level jobs in the oil field. That being said you should consider moving somewhere else if you’re not moving to Odessa to work in the gas and oil industry since the crime rate is so high. I know that if I got an opportunity to move away from here, I would.

The city that I live in maintains a high crime rate caused by an incredibly high population and limited available geographic area. The city is well-known for having a high market in the oil industry. It is not well known for raising a family in, but rather a location for lucrative jobs.
