In a recent survey, Tulsa makes the grade as a great place to live and work!
Tulsa Metro ranks 4th out of the Top 100 Metros in terms of Economic Security according to a study released by the Urban Institute. Tulsa was praised for its low unemployment, steady housing prices, average earnings that afford a median standard of living, and our ability to keep foreclosures to a minimum.
Oklahoma is recognized for its diverse economy. Such things as government, universities, energy, and high tech firms have held up well since the Great Recession of 2008. We didn’t fall victim to the vast swells of the housing boom and then bust, so mortgage prices today are remarkably affordable. When you couple that with the all time low mortgage loan rate of 3.93% (30 year fixed) recently reported by Yahoo today, Tulsa makes an ideal place to work and raise a family.
The Tulsa area continues to rank high on multiple survey lists – most affordable (Forbes), most recession-proof (Forbes), and best place to start a small business (Fortune Small Business). For more information on what makes the Tulsa Metro a great place to live and work, visit www.urban.org.
