McClain County is a different planning environment than the rest of the OKC metro. Newcastle, on the north end of the county just across the South Canadian River from south OKC, is one of the fastest-growing suburbs in the metro with newer subdivisions and younger families. Purcell, the county seat, has a more historic small-town character with multi-generational landowners and downtown businesses tied to the historic Santa Fe railroad economy. Blanchard, on the west side of the county, is a small-town community with growing residential development. Rural McClain County is heavily agricultural.
