Tulsa, OK in the news

Renter's guide to Tulsa, OK

Spread over 196 square miles, Tulsa is the second largest city in Oklahoma. It’s only 100 miles from Oklahoma City - its larger neighbor. Home to countless entertainment options, music events, museums, galleries, and ethnic festivals, it is considered to be the cultural and arts center of the state. In addition, for most of the 20th century, the Tulsa oil and gas industry earned the city the title of being the “Oil Capital of the World.”

Also, an interesting, though overlooked distinction, is that America’s most famous road, Route 66, owes its existence to the foresight of a Tulsa businessman, Cyrus Avery, who is known as the "Father of Route 66." It was he who in 1925 initiated a campaign to create a road linking Chicago to California, thus earning Tulsa the nickname of "Birthplace of Route 66".

Situated in the northeast corner of the state—258 miles from Kansas City, MO and 242 miles from Dallas, TX—Tulsa weather is affected by the fact that it lies at the edge of the Great Plains and at the foot of the Ozark Mountain Range in an ecoregion of rolling hills, forest, prairie, and the Arkansas River that flows through the city. Climate in Tulsa is rather temperate, with an average annual temperature of around 60 degrees. However, winters can be chilly and the city does see some of the white stuff from December through February, though Tulsa snowfall rarely totals more than 12 inches.

Tips for renting in Tulsa, OK

Familiarize yourself with the State of Oklahoma Landlord and Tenant Acts under which the City of Tulsa is governed. Generally, this act states that tenants in Oklahoma have the right to habitable living conditions in housing that meets basic structural, health, and safety standards and is in good repair. Should a landlord fail to make necessary repairs to keep the premises in safe, livable condition, a tenant has the right to withhold rent until those repairs are made. Before actually withholding rent or using the right to repair and deduct when taking care of the repairs yourself, always make sure your actions comply with the Oklahoma state law—including giving the landlord written notice of the problem.

If you’re moving to Tulsa from Boston, you may not need a lot of cold weather clothing, since the climate is rather temperate, but it does get chilly in the winter so some outerwear for the cold is still necessary. A large percentage of Tulsa’s population is college educated, so it’s a great place to live if you're looking for a place with a high education standard.

Finally, if you love the outdoors, Tulsa is a great place to live given its proximity to the Ozarks and the vast rolling hills and parkland in the city.
