Midwest City is a city in Oklahoma County, Oklahoma, United States. As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 54,088 and is the seventh largest city in the state.

Midwest City is a city of 25 square miles whose southern border is Tinker Air Force Base and is part of the Oklahoma City Metropolitan Statistical Area.

In Midwest City today, there are a number of changes, some complete and some still in progress. Many state and national organizations find Midwest City to be an ideal site for conferences and special events because of the location and the amenities. A performing Arts Theater with an outdoor amphitheater in Rose State College's new Communications Center have been added. Also new are the Oklahoma Welcome Center, Senior Center, Water Park, and nature and recreational trails.

Midwest City's diverse economic base has helped the city weather the drastic blows to the State's mainstay oil and agricultural economy. Tinker Air Force Base is a major area employer, as was the General Motors plant until its closure in February.

Throughout the year, Midwest City is host to many unique special events such as: Star Spangle Salute in July, Global Oklahoma - A Festival of Cultures in October, Holiday Lights Spectacular in November and December.

Midwest City was formerly a Certified City and has successfully transitioned to a Century Community.
