Remington Park's Fixed Location and Distance Facts

The Fixed Point: Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

Remington Park's documented straight-line distance to Oklahoma City is 5.1 miles. That figure is a great-circle measurement, not a road figure, and it describes the shortest path across the earth's surface between two coordinate points. Road distance is always longer, and this article does not publish driving mileage or travel time.

The venue's coordinates place it at 35.52833333 north latitude and -97.46861111 west longitude, within Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. A coordinate is a fixed geographic fact; it does not change with traffic, construction, or the route a visitor chooses. What changes is the distance a reader must travel, because roads follow land, water, and municipal boundaries rather than a direct line.

Straight-Line Distances to Reference Points

The table below lists every documented great-circle pairing supplied for this venue. Each row uses the exact mile figure from the reference set, and every figure is labelled as great-circle. No road mileage appears anywhere in this article.

Why Straight-Line and Road Distance Differ

A great-circle distance is the shortest path between two points on a sphere. Roads cannot follow that path. They bend around lakes, rivers, hills, and existing property lines, and they connect through junctions that were laid out long before the venue opened. The result is that a road route is always longer than the straight-line figure, sometimes by a small margin and sometimes by a large one.

Terrain is one cause. Water bodies force a route to a bridge or a crossing, and elevation changes force switchbacks or longer grades. The road network itself is another cause: highways connect population centers, not arbitrary coordinate pairs, so a traveler often moves away from the destination before moving toward it. State boundaries add a third layer, because road design, speed management, and maintenance differ across jurisdictions and can shape which route is practical. None of those factors is captured in a straight-line mile figure.

Regional Position of the Venue

Remington Park sits in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The coordinates place it in the central part of the state, and the straight-line table shows the nearest documented reference point is Oklahoma City itself at 5.1 miles, followed by Tulsa at 95.4 miles. The venue is therefore positioned close to the state's largest population center and within a regional network that includes Dallas at 193.7 miles straight-line and Kansas City at 293.4 miles straight-line.

The state of Oklahoma is bordered by Texas to the south, and the documented pairings to Denton, Dallas, Arlington, and Houston all sit in that direction. Kansas lies to the north, matching the Topeka and Kansas City pairings. The coordinate data supports those directional statements without requiring any road, highway, or route identification.

If Your Starting Point Is Not in the Table

The venue's position is fixed. A reader's starting point is not. If the keyword asks about distance from "me," "here," or "my location," the article cannot resolve that reference point, because no such coordinate exists in the reference set. The correct approach is to treat the venue's coordinates as the fixed anchor and measure from the reader's own position.

A reader can do that with any mapping tool that accepts latitude and longitude. Enter 35.52833333, -97.46861111 as the destination, then enter the reader's own starting address or coordinates. The tool will return a road distance and a route, which is the figure this article deliberately does not estimate. The straight-line table above remains useful as a sense of scale: a reader in Tulsa is 95.4 miles away as the crow flies, while a reader in Seattle is 1521.8 miles away as the crow flies.

What to Confirm Before You Go

Several changeable items are not documented here and must be confirmed through the venue's own channels. The venue's published contact page and guest services line hold the current answer for operating hours, any entry requirements, and any facility-specific policies. A reader should confirm those before traveling, because they change independently of the fixed geographic facts in this article.

The venue's ownership and branding are also subject to change. Publicly published reference sources document the current owner as Global Gaming RP, who purchased the facility via auction in 2009, but ownership records can be revised through later sales or rebrands. The coordinate position and the straight-line distances to fixed reference points do not change in the same way.

FAQ

Does Remington Park have table games?

The reference set for this article documents 750 slot machines at Remington Park, but contains no information about table games. The article cannot confirm or deny the presence of table games. A reader should check the venue's own published facility information or contact guest services directly for the current game mix.

How far is Remington Park from Oklahoma City?

The documented straight-line distance is 5.1 miles. That is a great-circle measurement, not a road distance. Road distance is always longer and is not published in this article. A reader can obtain a road distance by entering the venue's coordinates and the reader's starting point into a mapping tool.

What is the closest major city to Remington Park?

Oklahoma City is the closest documented reference point at 5.1 miles straight-line. Tulsa is the next closest at 95.4 miles straight-line. Both figures are great-circle measurements, and actual road travel is longer than either number suggests.
