Shawnee, County seat in Pottawatomie County, Oklahoma, United States.

Located 35 miles east of Oklahoma City, Shawnee spans across plains at an elevation of 323 meters with multiple educational institutions and medical facilities.

The Heart of Oklahoma Exposition Center features 52 acres of fairgrounds with indoor and outdoor arenas hosting regional events throughout the year.

The city maintains 366 RV spaces with complete hook-ups, comfort stations, showers, and laundry facilities for visitors exploring the region.

Shawnee ranks 17th among 1,261 small cities in the United States for business opportunities, offering low development costs and manufacturing potential.
