Hi! I am possibly moving to Tulsa this summer for a job. I am not familiar with the area whatsoever. HONESTLY how is Tulsa for 20-30 year olds? Where's the good night life/shopping/ restaurants? Any tips would help!

Where are you coming from? Tulsa is OK. We do have lots of nightlife for someone your age. The area's you'll want to look into would be downtown, which consists of a few different 'districts' (blue dome, pearl, brady arts, etc) , Cherry Street and Brookside. These area's are all very close to one another and are where most of the hip night clubs, bars, restaurants, etc are.

As far as shopping, there is a wide range of choices and it is improving. Urban Outfitters opened and Trader Joes and Costco will be open by Thanksgiving. H&M is opening a store in OKC. REI should open in Tulsa by next year.

I will be working at the BOK Center, how is that area? I might have assigned (discounted) living, but after reading reviews I'm not sure if that will be my best bet. I read that the Brady district was a good area? Trying to get an idea of where to look for apartments, etc.

Downtown Tulsa is pretty safe. The Brady District is about 4-5 blocks away on the other side of the tracks. The issue is that the City/County Jail and homeless shelter is nearby as well. I haven't seen many aggressive panhandlers downtown.

As far as rent goes, what is available downtown is pretty pricy. You'd be looking at over 1k a month but you can find rentals outside the IDL (Inter-Dispersal Loop) for less. I recommend looking at Central Park on a longer term lease and you may be able to get a better price. Central Park is 3 blocks south of the BOK and has 24-hour security.
