I don’t want to sound naive but I have been a California girl my whole life. I was born and raised in San Diego and have never really traveled to the midwest. I am thinking about moving out there for job opportunities and cheaper housing but am nervous about a big change. Some of these may sound like dumb concerns so I apologize in advance.
How is the weather? does it get really hot or does it snow?
How often are there tornadoes?
Are there a variety of restaurants (sushi, thai, mexican, chinese)?
Is there any place close by to fish, camp, or shoot guns?
Is there a good school system?
I know it’s a lot of questions but I want to know what it is like in general and what are some big differences between SD and Tulsa besides the absence of the ocean. Thank you for any help.
I’ve been a New Yorker my whole life but I’m thinking of moving to Tulsa as well. I’ve visited the area a few times in the past two years. I certainly can’t speak as a native or long time resident but here goes:
Tulsa has four seasons. It does get hot in the summer. I’ve only been to SD once but you will find it’s a different kind of heat. The winters, by NY standards, are mild. It does snow.
The whole tornado thing seems overblown- no pun intended. I spoke to many long time residents and they say it’s not the threat in Tulsa as it’s portrayed to be. Officially, yjere has been 24 tornados reported in Tulsa County in the past 50 years. That is a county total. Of all the people I asked in Tulsa itself, none could remember a tornado hitting the city itself in twenty years.
There are so many different restaurants in Tulsa. Everything that you could want is there. I leave the authenticity of the cuisine up to you. Being from NY I like Italian. The look and feel it there somewhat but the food had a long way to go.
I’m told that Oklahoma is a sportsman’s paradise.
I’m told that the school system of Tulsa and the surrounding suburbs are good.
Although Tulsa has nightlife and a “counterculture” it is, at its root, a traditional and family life place. The city is about five square blocks and surrounded by residential areas. Suburbs are minutes away. Basically, as compared to NY or even SD, the streets roll up at night.
Not a bad thing in my eyes. You just have to know where to goand become part of the scene.
That being said it is the pace of life and the friendliness pf the residents that are the hallmark of Tulsa. You can get anything you want. There is opera, dance, theater- just smaller.
Christian values are a significant force in Tulsa life- another good thing in my eyes.
I suggest you log on citydata.com and look at the remarks for Tulsa and its suburbs. It has a wealth of information.

My 3 girlfriends and I are going to Vegas in September – I’m the last one to turn 21, so we’re all Vegas newbies (at least with gambling, drinking, and clubbing). Any recommendations – especially specific to this September – for four girls our age would be great! Dining, gambling (we are completely inexperienced…. how do we start?), clubs, comedy shows, or other activities? We’re staying at the Venetian – and for right now we have dinner reservations for Bradley Ogden’s restaurant and Sushi Samba, but we could always change them!
The Venetian and Bradley Ogden’s?? Ohh those are NICE PLACES AND RESTAURANTS to eat at? It may be a little out of your league and age range but hey its vegas.. I would say MGM, Palms, Rock Hard or Planet Hollywood on the strip might suit your age crowd better then the venetian because your going to see more people your age.. Restaurants i like N9NE steakhouse at the Palms and Nubu for Sushi at the Hard Rock hotel or Mikado at the Mirage, let me warn you, its expensive, i’m talking about $60 bucks or more per person expensive. Clubs, Jet, Pure, XS, Tryst, LAX, Tao and Lavo are tops in town.. Comedy shows, it depends on who’s in town that weekend..
