@rr.com | Moving to Tulsa, need apartment recommendation
I will be moving to Tulsa next month and don't know much about the area. Can anyone recommend a nice place for a 2 bed 2 bath apartment that is in a good neighborhood? |

@rr.com | I will be working off of N 161st East and have no children. Just me and my wife. I just need a 2 bedroom so I have somewhere to keep all of my computer equipment without it driving the wife insane. |

| reply to OKnoob If you're going to be working on N 161st, I'd look in the Owasso area. Decent, fast growing area with fewer srime issues than Tulsa. -- ~ Team Discovery ~ ~ Project Hope ~

| reply to OKnoob How far north on 161st East Ave.?
There are apartments on I-44 (aka Skelly Bypass) down in the 129th East Ave. area, but I don't know if they are suitable or not.
I grew up a few miles from there (between 81st and 91st on S 129th East Ave.), but haven't kept up with east Tulsa area in a long time. My folks lived in Broken Arrow until their deaths in '94 & '95. We still go back there to visit family and friends. We stay at the KOA that is 2 miles east of where you are talking about (across from the Cherokee Casino).
catdaddy63 , note that this is East, not North. |

@rr.com | Just north of 44. I hear that SE Tulsa and Broken Arrow are nice areas. |

| said by McSummation :Just like Austin, some are nice, some aren't. Austin has one "troubling" area. There is no "bad" area in town at least not compared to where I recently lived.
I know you said you grew up in Tulsa and yes I'm sure there are some nice areas but I seriously did not feel safe driving around on a Thursday night to find some bars and I did a bunch of driving. I stayed at a hotel near the convention center.
In the morning around 10 I went downtown to take pictures. It was a ghost town. Almost no cars and exactly two people I saw. Why would that have been? This was last January and the weather was good. |
