I'd say add 20 minutes each way. The freeways should be alright, but the surface street in that area are packed.
Nope, 169 will be backed up quite a ways in the morning due to the overpass rehab they're doing at Mingo & I-244. That flyover ramp backs down to about 21st (before you get to I-44) in the morning. You might be better served to head east on 21st out to 193rd and then north there. |

Yeah, it's not the most quiet part of town. But the condos around there are too good to pass up. And they're off the road a bit and gated, so that helps. I know the traffic will be a bear, but I lived in Denver two years ago, and can't imagine it's much worse than that. Still, a timetable would be good know. Thanks for the ideas. Also, a bit off-topic, but still has to do with relocating, I guess: Do you all know of any parks or recreation areas where people play pick-up soccer or volleyball games? I've looked online and found this... http://www.neoasa.org/But the season will be about half-over by the time I arrive and I'm looking for something a bit more recreational for the time being anyway. Sorry if I'm being "that guy" on here. You guys have been great help. Thanks again! |

There are sites on the internet that rate apartments, the residents can post their own ratings about a complex. I don't know how helpful those sites really are. It's also intresting to read comments about a complex.

Owasso and Jenks are my two favorite suburbs. BA isn't bad.
Tulsa brookside and the utica area are very nice as is far south Tulsa.
This is a pretty good place to live, sure it has its drawbacks but overall its good.

I always like west Tulsa, across the river blue, it has an old time charm and is not as crowded with malls, stores and traffic. West Tulsa at one time had a major employer called "RiverSide Industries" and they coated metals for electrical transmission towers, this was around 1978 I dunno if they are still in bussiness or not, of if the company moved, I can't find nothing on them thru google. They were a good company to work for.

Haven't been lately, I see. 71st at US 75 is not pretty these days. Oh, that's right, you don't live here.... http://www.tulsaworld.com/business/article.aspx?articleID=20080215_5_e1_world38233And the traffic? Try crossing the bridge from West Tulsa (21st from Chandler Park) over US75 at 5pm to get on the highway and tell me that traffic ain't bad. I've done it twice in a week and it ain't pretty. The traffic by the mall I referenced above is not fun either. It's not Woodland Hills, but it's starting to get heavier. |

He has no idea of driving around Tulsa on a daily basis. He only passes through on rare occasions. Where you talk about I avoid if I can because of the traffic. I try to not go south of I-44 because getting past that great wall is a major headache almost anytime of day. Yale is the only place where I don't have to wait for two or three red lights just to get beyond the interstate. Some days I think it would be faster to go over the river to 75 and down to 71st just to get to Heberts than to try to go straight down Lewis. |

South Tulsa conversely is generally White and Republican, WITH VERY LOW CRIME, BETTER SCHOOLS, LESS TRAFFIC CONGESTION, BETTER SHOPPING, AND, MOST IMPORTANTLY, YOU COULD WIND UP LIVING NEAR ME.
You can get to Catoosa via the Creek Turnpike.
LOL well I hope you guys don't mine the addition of a black, liberal female to south tulsa  |
