I feel like OKC and Tulsa would both qualify as 'mid sized' cities by most definitions. OKC has Norman and Edmond, Tulsa has Broken Arrow.

What about outer neighborhoods within both of those cities?

What about the Proctor District as another example in the city?: https://www.google.com/maps/@47.2723...2!9m2!1b1!2i39

In Cleveland Little Italy, Shaker Square, and Larchmere are really nice outer ring neighborhoods. North Collinwood is also an interesting up and coming outer neighborhood.

You noted North Collinwood. Most folks think of the funky Waterloo Rd (with the famed Beechland Ballroom rock venue), which is definitely a hip, up-and-coming urban Main Street district. But most don't think of tiny, quiet Manhattan Beach on the Lake Erie shoreline, to wit:

... including this Pacific Rim knockoff classic home:

West Park/Kamm's Corners is really nice, solid on the West Side -- suburban-like in many ways.

Brooklyn Centre/Old Brooklyn and Edgewater are nice, I guess, middle ring neighborhoods -- Edgewater has Cleveland's wealthiest residential neighborhood within the city limits.

Glenville, also a middle-ring nabe on the East Side, is overall low to moderate-income, but has some seriously suburban-like moments with grand old houses and apt complexes near the lush MLK-Rockefeller Park (Cultural Gardens) corridor as the below vistas attest:

South Buffalo is isolated from the rest of the city by the Buffalo River and industrial/railroad corridors, and is sometimes broken into several smaller neighborhoods along its 3 main commercial corridors. It also tends to have more of the Old Buffalo feel, is the city's largest traditionally Irish neighborhood, and is the most conservative part of the city.

Spokane's Garland District is a pretty cool area well north of downtown. It's centered around the '40s Art Deco Garland Theater and was the filming location for Benny & Joon (with Johnny Depp).
