Of course it's a safe town it really is there a bad spots in every two on the whole planet. Tulsa is truly safe town. the media just makes it seem like it's not there were no devastating riots here cuz there's good people here.
I lived a good part of my life in Tulsa. It’s probably not what a lot of people would think of as an exciting place, but it’s not at all what this film depicts. Looks like it was done on a sleepy Sunday afternoon, avoiding the places where there might be a lot of people. And showing vacant buildings and lots. The city is much more than what’s depicted here.
I moved to Tulsa in 1951. I loved the downtown area. We rode the Sand Springs streetcar to Main street and shopped Kresses, Walgreens and lots m ore shops. It was alive with movie theaters, businesses and people.
My grandparents raised their kids on Virgin Street. Well the part that is now TIA. My aunts attended Hamilton Elementary until they moved to Owasso in the early 1960’s. My grandfather worked for Sinclair Oil for ten years before he took a job at the MD bomber plant in the late 50’s.
So much more going on downtown now, at least there is when I drive through it. Between the BOK Center, the new ballpark, Guthrie Green, the Greenwood District, Cain's Ballroom, restaurants, bars, and a thriving music scene, it's pretty vibrant. The Art Deco architecture and murals make it beautiful, too. Outside of downtown, there's Gathering Place, Cherry Street, Woodward Park, Brookside, museums, and beautiful oil-era mansions. So much more than you can tell from this video.
Moved to Tulsa from Austin two years ago. I love your video because you make Tulsa seem dull. I don’t want what happened to Austin to happen to Tulsa. Truth is, the City is outstanding. Cheap, Good Weather, Aesthetically beautiful with Tons of Trees, Rolling Hills, A Major River, excellent biking trails, World Class Art museums in Philbrook and Gilcrease and the best park in the World. ‘The Gathering Place’. You think I’m lying, you’ll be shocked. I called bullshit until I saw for myself, the park is awe inspiring…They also have a killer baseball team with one of the coolest views of a Cities downtown I’ve seen. Tulsa is also more Liberal than OKC, which the 2021 version of Liberalism is insane sounds bad but maybe more Libertarian I’d say than hard Conservative. The Conservatives I see are just normal people. There is no ‘Drama’ or Unrest here that a good portion of the US is seeing. However, I wouldn’t burn any American flags here. You’ll likely get a courtesy nap from an America loving Okie. Which you’d deserve. They also have lots of Lakes surrounding the City, so if you like water you’re in luck. It also has a Rich Music History with Bob Wills, Leon McAuliffe, JJ Cale, Leon Russel, Lee Hazlewood, and a ton of historic shows brought to town by Little Wing Productions from the Sex Pistols in 1978 at The Police, Iggy Popp, Richard Hell, The Police, U2, Van Halen, Black Sabbath , Frank Sinatra and Willie Nelson’s 1977 4th of July Picnic…Cains Ballroom, Brady Theater, Tulsa Pavilion, Tulsa Assembly Center and on. The Woody Guthrie Center, OKPOP, World HQ for BMX, Booming Downtown and one of the best live music scenes in America. The local musicians are world class. Texans and Okies probably have more music history than the rest of the US. The City is growing and the combined metro has right at 1,100,000 people.

2:15 that’s the Brady theater 🎭 I opened up for Buckcherry there in 2015. That building is literally 100 plus years old in age. Tulsa has grown a lot due to the art district and better managed building owners. Many jobs are available here. Californians and Texans move here constantly. For the record when you ask “where is everyone?” I don’t know what you expected in 2020 but that wasn’t a great time to catch the vibrant energy or collective gatherings.

There are about 3 of these restaurant shopping districts that are walkable, Utica Square, Cherry Street, and Peoria St...Tulsa has some areas in the Downtown area on the Northside with bars and restaurants, he probably drove in the wrong areas...Tulsa isn't known as tourist friendly there are lot of hideaway places that only locals no about...
Well after Biden's debacle no place will be safe. Cheers 50 countries pouring their prisons into usa. I d suggest calling your representatives and senators!.
Most of the crime isn’t on the North Side anymore Nick. Tulsa is changing very fast. I’ve lived on every side and if I had to pick a most dangerous side it would be the drug infested south west. The city as a whole though is pretty nice and safe 💯
@@stinkypete891 I wouldn’t say gang activity but mild crime. I’ve been here all my life and Tulsa is like a lot of the other places if you don’t put yourself in base situations any part of town is safe lol.
I live in Tulsa and it is a relatively decent place to live. Not nearly as much crime and drug as people say, although we do have some homeless issues. Downtown isn't usually that busy, even during the week. Most people only go there to work in office buildings. The lunch time crowd is decent and Saturday nights. All the action is usually on Utica and Cherry Street (15th street) during the week. Tulsa has expanded a lot in the Southern part of town, but I rarely go there. They probably have some decent shops and restaurants out that way. Since this was taken last year during the pandemic and the day after Thanksgiving, I am surprised there were any automobiles around. There definitely wouldn't be many people walking around downtown any time.
Most downtowns in America are on the empty side dull side. It’s usually the northern cities like New York, Philly, Boston, Chicago and maybe a few more that have busy downtowns. America usually does not do downtowns well since many cities have gone downhill. The best downtowns in my opinion are in the European and Asian cities
The day after Thanksgiving in 2020 thatd be why it's deserted and also we are in a pandemic. You have cherry street with eateries and Brookside with eat s ries and shopping and a 71st with a large mall plus several other strip malls on both sides of 71st along with tons of places to eat.
I have been in Tulsa about 24 years and I'm originally from Syria " Dammascus " the oldest living city in the world and I have been in 29 Countries around the world 🌎 but Tulsa is one of the most beautiful cities ❤ very Clean easy to drive around people in tulsa the most friendly people ever and Tulsa very safe city and so affordable ❤ only things people very religious and Conservative but so cool people. Coming on and visit our beautiful City.
"only things people very religious and conservative" -- as if that's a bad thing? That's one of the BEST things about the area. It means good, caring, responsible, patriotic people.
This was recorded during the covid shut down. Tulsa is very lively and can see thousands of people commuting in downtown. Also, it’s home to Greenwood, aka Black Wall Street the most violent massacre in U.S history took place . The BOK building is also, a smaller scale skyscraper to the twin towers of NYC design by the same architect. Downtown Tulsa is also home to the famous Cains ballroom. The BOK center is also the nation’s highest ticket selling venue. Center of the universe is also in D town Tulsa .the outsiders was also filmed in Tulsa. It’s late I’m going to bed hopefully this sheds some more light in our cities Downtown district
I live in Tulsa and there are so many more beautiful street views you could have shown, than the ones you did. When I first started watching I was going to send it to friends and family to try to get them to come here, but there is blacktop in every city.
I lived in T-town wish it it Tulsa, Oklahoma. In 1978 i.move from Los Angeles, California to Tulsa, Oklahoma. It was a cold day the day I arrived. I already have family before I came to Tulsa. At that time. Tulsa remains me of city of Compton, California back in the early fifty's and sistys. I enjoy my visit there. And I made up my mind that I was going to make tulsa, Oklahoma my home.
Tulsa native here. Its the best place to live. I will never move away. This video only showed downtown area which is okay! But, the city has a TON more to offer. One of the fastest growing in the nation. Fun place to be.
Dude! Do you even research the cities you visit? You drove around “downtown” but were not on Main Street, Boston Avenue, or Reconciliation Way. Lazy video about Tulsa. Do better.
I am living in this city for the last two years now. I have loved every bit of living here. People are so nice and welcoming, values are important and hospitality is a part of life. These things seem to be vanishing from the advanced cities.
I’ve lived in Tulsa since 1978, 46 years now. Served on the fire department 1980-2005, and then the Broken Arrow Fire Dept 2005-2017. I don’t think there’s any other place I’d choose to live.
From Tulsa and can honestly say I meet new people everyday and a lot of people from other states come here always I travel a lot and when travel is done coming home always feels good like home 🏡
I spent some time in Tulsa in the early 80s and really liked it. People were really nice. I would like to visit again some day. Thanks for sharing, Nick.
The early 80s.... Ohhh not a thing has changed since the early 80s.... J/J. You would be amazed at the growth since then. I was born in 79 and lived in Tulsa most every year since. I still think it's the prettiest bigger cities but I've been to definitely anywhere within 300 miles or so! I think it kind of be hard to find much of anything being the same as the early 80s. It would be fun to watch someone like You explore what 40 years has changed
@@ovienetz2158 ohhh, this makes me sad to hear, but honestly most towns have probably changed for the worse over the last thirty years. I doubt Tulsa stands alone in that regard.
Love living in Tulsa. People aren't nearly as bad as bricks as other cities. Low cost of living. Not flat & red & dirty like OKC. Better BBQ than Austin.
Im so thankful for you Nick..You have been my light and Joy since the Pandemic a year ago..Your videos are so interesting to watch!!! Thankyou for saving my life !!!!
I lived in Tulsa for a short period of time while attending Spartan school of aeronautics and Technology. I lived on the north side and it wasn't terrible. N.side Tulsa is almost home to the former black wall street and the infamous 1921 Tulsa race massacre
@@christinemcmahon-king9782 Greenwood is north of Admiral which is the dividing line between north and south. Greenwood runs from Archer to pine, thus the GAP band’s name from Greenwood, Archer and Pine.
Tulsa Oklahoma is actually the geographical gateway to the west. The Center of the Universe actually is about two blocks south of the spot that claims to be it. The energy is incredible. Notice how clean it is.
One thing not mentioned by other commenters and ignored by Nick is that Tulsa is being engulfed by turnpikes (toll roads). Coming into or leaving Tulsa is difficult without paying a toll on some turnpike. Not so in OKC, where both I35 and I40 are FREEways north south east and west. But then all the important state politicians work and/or live in OKC. My single biggest objection about Oklahoma is the state commits highway robbery by forcing people pay to use their roads. No other state has as many miles of turnpikes, per capita. And the people of Oklahoma don't seem to understand that they're being ripped off.
I live in Tulsa and can attest to the fact that downtown is usually busier than this, but even under normal circumstances it's not the busiest part of town. That would be the area around Woodland Hills Mall near 71st and Memorial. I won't drive in that area unless it's completely unavoidable as the traffic is beyond ridiculous.
I'm sorry but as somebody who lives in tulsa, this video shows barely 2% of the city. He didn't even drive down Black Wall Street, it makes me wonder if he even researches his videos.
Downtown Tulsa is more for night life like concerts and evening dining. Of course it’s gonna be very empty earlier in the day. If you go to the Woodland Hills area that’s where most people that are out would be during the day.
I was born and raised in Tulsa. Moved back recently and not too much has changed over the years. It is at least a growing and affordable place to live.
Why so little people walk on the streets of USA smaller or medium size cities? 400k city and so little people walking, i saw this pattern repeating in many of Nick videos were streets are shown.
Public transit in and around Tulsa sucks. Most people commute to work downtown from different areas of Tulsa or the various surrounding cities. There's some condos and apartments downtown, but it doesn't seem like all that many people live there. The streets get packed when there's big concerts in town and for the occasional festival, but are quiet during work hours (unless it's lunchtime).
It's in the description...filmed the day after thanksgiving...the other hateful assholes commenting couldn't bother to read that part before spewing their ridiculous vitriol.
I'm gonna put that blame mostly on Covid. This was shot the day before my birthday and the day after Thanksgiving. From what I remember we were all told we shouldn't even go meet up with our families out of concern we might be carrying the virus and pass it to a loved one who may not be strong enough to fight it and live. I live so close to the center of downtown I can walk there in 10 minutes. If I were to go right now and shoot a video driving the same route, there would be loads of people walking around.
_Thanks for sharing another interesting dash board tour through the clean looking city of Tulsa Ok . The traffic denotes an early Sunday morning, during the pandemic quarantine. Best Wishes Sage n Nick_ 👍🇺🇲
I grew up in East Central Tulsa, just a few miles down Route 66 (we call it 11th Street here) from downtown to Yale. It’s recently become a one-lane road with a bike lane, so no one in their right mind wants to drive it. Add to that the also fairly recent addition of a loop at the downtown end of 11th, and you’ve cut down on people going downtown from a major feeder
I drove around downtown Tulsa for the first time 2 days after Thanksgiving 🦃 last year 😁 . I drove around downtown for 20 minutes or so, even driving beside one of the famed Apartments in Tulsa. Later on that morning, I drove up to Vinita and the Archway. Stayed 2 nights in Catoosa about 10 miles or so east of Tulsa. 😎 Went again during Christmas 🌲🎅 last year
When were you there? What time of day and what day of the week. Just go to SE Tulsa and you will see tons of people. Broken Arrow, Bixby, Jenks, Owasso are loaded with people.
I live right by downtown and I can tell you it's much more active now! Restaurants are open again & people are moving out & about. Winterfest will bet set up in about a month and half by the arena. Why didn't you show Cathedral Corner with the beautiful architecture? We're known for having some if the best Art Deco architecture. Tulsa has a lot to offer and the best part of Tulsa is the people. Friendly and generous with smiles and helping hands. I'm thankful to live here.
Ive lived here all my life and Ive always heard of the times when it was booming, we had quite a few famous musicians live here as well, including George Harrison of the Beatles and a few others.
Haven't read all the comments. My family has lived in Tulsa over 100 years and I've seen downtown Tulsa booming in the 60's and 70's and then die in the 80's and 90's. Well downtown is back with a vengeance. Great restaurants and bars and lots of activity such as Tulsa Tough (one of the top 10 bike races in the nation) and Octoberfest (again one of the top 10 in the nation). Much better things to do and see in Tulsa.
Try coming any other time than last year’s Covid scare lol, we have lots of people out and about all the time. P.s. downtown is like 2% of Tulsa. Most people are south Tulsa. Lots more things to do and see
I see a lot of comments wondering why it looks like a ghost town. Im assuming Nick was there during business hours of a colder looking day. The only time downtown really has foot traffic is Saturday night in the blue dome district with good weather, during a big concert at the BOK, or lunch time during the week in the business district. Other than that, all the action happens on Brookside, Utica, Cherry Street or the suburbs where all of the money is. Tulsa is similar to Portland Oregon in the fact that the neighborhoods outside of downtown are where people like to hangout and eat - and the naturey areas like the arkansas river trails, gathering place, turkey mountain, lakes, etc. But yes, Tulsa’s downtown has never really been its strength.
I would disagree that downtown has never really been its strength. Up until the 1960’s downtown was the shopping hub of the city. It was packed during the day with shoppers and even the evening with theater goers as there were numerous movie theaters in and around downtown. It wasn’t until Southroads and Southland shopping centers were built that downtown started to become a less traveled area.
Same with down town Minneapolis and St Paul. No one is just chilling in down town during the day. Only like 4 college campuses downtown Minneapolis and not very social. Even less people out in down town St. Paul
He did not go to the Art District or to Guthrie Green. Additionally, a lot of people were at Gathering Place on the day after Thanksgiving in 2020. That’s where I was.
@@tulsabeasley918 I would say Tulsa is known for BBQ but it is definitely unique. It's a mix of Texas BBQ and Kansas City BBQ. We also do BBQ Bologna which I found out was a Tulsa thing after living in a few other places. But I always found myself wishing I had some Tulsa BBQ.
Love Tulsa has four resorts in the immediate area including Hard Rock and Riverspirit. Tulsa is more of a family place with the best suburbs in the country. Bixby especially but BA , Jenks, Bristow. Are nice too.
I lived in Tulsa back back in 98-99 on the south east side. Tulsa had crime everywhere back then. We were always told to stay away from Peoria back then...
I have a theory that Tulsa doesn’t have that much crime, they just have a lot of cops arresting people and reporting it. They aren’t “cooking the books”. I lived in OKC where you can’t go to the drug store and back without seeing cops, and I’ve been to Tulsa, I’ve partied downtown. It didn’t seem that bad for crime to me. Am I wrong?
Don't think I didn't see you run that light my man🤣🤣🤣. Great video my man, however, if you did a part two, post Covid intro, you'd really get the essence of downtown T-TOWN.
I thought I was watching the 1971 sci-fi movie, "The Omega Man", where Colonel Robert Neville drives everyday through deserted Los Angeles, emptied by a devastating global plague. Tulsa is scary to look at for a Los Anegeleno or New Yorker used to packed streets and sidewalks and constant street noise day and night.
Live here 50 miles fromTulsa. There is coffee shops and places to go. Tulsa has a cool downtown park with cafes and such. There is a zoo, air and space museum and if you go to Jenks there is an aquarium near several shops and the river walk. Lived here 15+ years. The people are great but they do not understand 4 way stops😁. I am originally from Northeast.
Have lived in Tulsa for 30 years.. you should see it when it's poppin. But this is a good video, a good drive-thru to show the buildings and such downtown. Tulsa however is huge. It's a great place
Are all of the traffic lights in Tulsa on poles on the side of the street? I live in Florida where they hang over the center of the intersections. Very different.
Oklahoma native (of European, not tribal decent) here. I think it's important to point out that Tulsa is spread out, not up like many major cities in the U.S. Hence, the lack of many skyscrapers. All the traffic lights downtown are on poles as seen in the video. Outside of downtown, traffic lights throughout the city are strung OVER the streets corresponding to the lane you are currently in which (I think) is what you are referring to. Fun fact, Tulsa is where the FIRST parking meter was installed. I hope this helps. ✌
I nearly laughed out loud when I heard you were driving around the industrial and business area of Tulsa on Black Friday during the pandemic, and you wondered where all the people were. We didn't even get together for an in-person Thanksgiving that year. A lot of people were still working remotely. And we sure don't hang out in that part of town when we do go out!
Love Tulsa ❤️ One of my best friends live there, love going out to visit her 😊 My night off, watching some of your videos and going to dinner with friends!
The downtown area is usually dead like this during the morning time. The city itself is changing for the better although there isn't nearly as much to do here than other similar sized cities. Also the downtown portion is relatively small compared to the other outlying parts of the city. There's also Broken Arrow, Owasso and several other towns in the area that are worth a visit as well. And OKC is only about 75 minutes away
The thing that struck me as unusual for this video is I didn't really see anyone walking or barely driving the streets. It seemed like a ghost city. Nick, I am dying to ask you a question. I have watched most, if not all of your driving videos and I have always wanted to ask you. What is the total mileage on your vehicle? or rather what is the total mileage that you think you have driven?
Here's my entire Unboxing America Series: th-cam.com/play/PLq-_cmf3H6yqgM1vGG305six5T7dqGURF.html
Fun fact: drive between 22 - 24 miles per hour and you'll hit every green light in Downtown Tulsa.

LOL Brookside is not safe anymore. That was the 70s! Now it’s all public housing and crack housed.
This video makes it look like there is nothing there but a handful of big buildings and a lot of parking lots.
do share examples of hideaways. my cousin and I are non-natives but we are certainly not stereotypical tourists
Most of the crime isn’t on the North Side anymore Nick. Tulsa is changing very fast. I’ve lived on every side and if I had to pick a most dangerous side it would be the drug infested south west. The city as a whole though is pretty nice and safe 💯
Also the east side is way worst then north Tulsa.
That’s a fact
Is there a lot of gang activity?
@@stinkypete891 I wouldn’t say gang activity but mild crime. I’ve been here all my life and Tulsa is like a lot of the other places if you don’t put yourself in base situations any part of town is safe lol.
Gotta agree. Especially the south side past 31st and Memorial and West past Gilcrease Museum Road. TweakerVille.
I live in Tulsa and it is a relatively decent place to live. Not nearly as much crime and drug as people say, although we do have some homeless issues. Downtown isn't usually that busy, even during the week. Most people only go there to work in office buildings. The lunch time crowd is decent and Saturday nights. All the action is usually on Utica and Cherry Street (15th street) during the week. Tulsa has expanded a lot in the Southern part of town, but I rarely go there. They probably have some decent shops and restaurants out that way. Since this was taken last year during the pandemic and the day after Thanksgiving, I am surprised there were any automobiles around. There definitely wouldn't be many people walking around downtown any time.
I've lived in tulsa for 22 years and the crime and drug issue really is a big thing so idk where ur drawing that conclusion.
@@gallick0060 exactly! He’s never been to north Tulsa either. My dad was robbed and killed in Tulsa at his business in 1988.
Most downtowns in America are on the empty side dull side. It’s usually the northern cities like New York, Philly, Boston, Chicago and maybe a few more that have busy downtowns. America usually does not do downtowns well since many cities have gone downhill. The best downtowns in my opinion are in the European and Asian cities
The day after Thanksgiving in 2020 thatd be why it's deserted and also we are in a pandemic. You have cherry street with eateries and Brookside with eat s ries and shopping and a 71st with a large mall plus several other strip malls on both sides of 71st along with tons of places to eat.
I have been in Tulsa about 24 years and I'm originally from Syria " Dammascus " the oldest living city in the world and I have been in 29 Countries around the world 🌎 but Tulsa is one of the most beautiful cities ❤ very Clean easy to drive around people in tulsa the most friendly people ever and Tulsa very safe city and so affordable ❤ only things people very religious and Conservative but so cool people. Coming on and visit our beautiful City.
"only things people very religious and conservative" -- as if that's a bad thing? That's one of the BEST things about the area. It means good, caring, responsible, patriotic people.
This was recorded during the covid shut down. Tulsa is very lively and can see thousands of people commuting in downtown. Also, it’s home to Greenwood, aka Black Wall Street the most violent massacre in U.S history took place . The BOK building is also, a smaller scale skyscraper to the twin towers of NYC design by the same architect. Downtown Tulsa is also home to the famous Cains ballroom. The BOK center is also the nation’s highest ticket selling venue. Center of the universe is also in D town Tulsa .the outsiders was also filmed in Tulsa. It’s late I’m going to bed hopefully this sheds some more light in our cities Downtown district
I live in Tulsa and there are so many more beautiful street views you could have shown, than the ones you did. When I first started watching I was going to send it to friends and family to try to get them to come here, but there is blacktop in every city.
If you're going to tour Downtown Tulsa, you really need to include ALL of the Arts District. Skipping Guthrie Green and Cain's Ballroom is just sad.
I lived in T-town wish it it Tulsa, Oklahoma. In 1978 i.move from Los Angeles, California to Tulsa, Oklahoma. It was a cold day the day I arrived. I already have family before I came to Tulsa. At that time. Tulsa remains me of city of Compton, California back in the early fifty's and sistys. I enjoy my visit there. And I made up my mind that I was going to make tulsa, Oklahoma my home.
Tulsa native here. Its the best place to live. I will never move away. This video only showed downtown area which is okay! But, the city has a TON more to offer. One of the fastest growing in the nation. Fun place to be.
Lmao are you kidding, Tulsa is a joke
filmed the day after thanksgiving so yeah downtown was empty
Born and raised in tulsa. We have nothing here. Cost of living is great though

Dude! Do you even research the cities you visit? You drove around “downtown” but were not on Main Street, Boston Avenue, or Reconciliation Way.

Do better.

I am almost certain if he'd driven down Boston instead of Cincinnati there would have been something going on at Elote at the very least.

I am living in this city for the last two years now. I have loved every bit of living here. People are so nice and welcoming, values are important and hospitality is a part of life. These things seem to be vanishing from the advanced cities.
I live in Tulsa too!
Boy our city ghetto af wym lol
@@gallick0060 literally what i was abt to say💀
@@cherrylimeadee136 they must live in a different tulsa lmao
Any city that is lacking kindness, welcome, and hospitality is NOT ADVANCED.
Born and raised in Tulsa..my hometown ❤️❤️
I’ve lived in Tulsa since 1978, 46 years now. Served on the fire department 1980-2005, and then the Broken Arrow Fire Dept 2005-2017. I don’t think there’s any other place I’d choose to live.
From Tulsa and can honestly say I meet new people everyday and a lot of people from other states come here always
I travel a lot and when travel is done coming home always feels good like home 🏡
I spent some time in Tulsa in the early 80s and really liked it. People were really nice. I would like to visit again some day. Thanks for sharing, Nick.
I love the song Donna the 80s were great sometimes I cry deep inside I wanne go back I love nostalgia
Not the same
Its gone down.
The early 80s.... Ohhh not a thing has changed since the early 80s.... J/J. You would be amazed at the growth since then. I was born in 79 and lived in Tulsa most every year since. I still think it's the prettiest bigger cities but I've been to definitely anywhere within 300 miles or so! I think it kind of be hard to find much of anything being the same as the early 80s. It would be fun to watch someone like You explore what 40 years has changed
@@ovienetz2158 ohhh, this makes me sad to hear, but honestly most towns have probably changed for the worse over the last thirty years. I doubt Tulsa stands alone in that regard.
It's not like it was in the 80s, Tulsa is like a dystopia at this point, I love love it here but I fucking hate it here man
Going over that bridge at 3:00 reminded me of LA 6th St bridge.
So many American cities look so similar because they are so car-based.
Love living in Tulsa. People aren't nearly as bad as bricks as other cities. Low cost of living. Not flat & red & dirty like OKC. Better BBQ than Austin.
Im so thankful for you Nick..You have been my light and Joy since the Pandemic a year ago..Your videos are so interesting to watch!!! Thankyou for saving my life !!!!
I lived in downtown Tulsa in the late 60's and early 70's. Totally different downtown! Didn't recognize much. What happened to the Cimarron Ballroom?
If drive 27mph through downtown tulsa, you will hit a green light every time
Facts
That's definitely true on Cincinnati Ave, but not so much for the numbered streets.
I lived in Tulsa for a short period of time while attending Spartan school of aeronautics and Technology. I lived on the north side and it wasn't terrible. N.side Tulsa is almost home to the former black wall street and the infamous 1921 Tulsa race massacre
The Greenwood District is downtown Tulsa, not up on the north side.
@@christinemcmahon-king9782 Greenwood is north of Admiral which is the dividing line between north and south. Greenwood runs from Archer to pine, thus the GAP band’s name from Greenwood, Archer and Pine.
Tulsa Oklahoma is actually the geographical gateway to the west. The Center of the Universe actually is about two blocks south of the spot that claims to be it. The energy is incredible. Notice how clean it is.
@Summer D Yes I like Colorado, but Denver or others I wouldn’t call clean, or Pueblo. But they might be now. Are they?
@@ronniebishop2496 agreed
One thing not mentioned by other commenters and ignored by Nick is that Tulsa is being engulfed by turnpikes (toll roads). Coming into or leaving Tulsa is difficult without paying a toll on some turnpike. Not so in OKC, where both I35 and I40 are FREEways north south east and west. But then all the important state politicians work and/or live in OKC. My single biggest objection about Oklahoma is the state commits highway robbery by forcing people pay to use their roads. No other state has as many miles of turnpikes, per capita. And the people of Oklahoma don't seem to understand that they're being ripped off.
Lets see , i believe he said it was the day after Thanksgiving a holiday. I lived in Tulsa for 25 yrs really enjoyed it. Shalom
Literally in Tulsa right now, been here for 2 weeks and the downtown footage is accurate
Thanks for this video, Nick. It was relaxing and informative.
(5:18) The brick building on the left is old Central High School. Now the building belongs to Public Service of Oklahoma.
I live in Tulsa and can attest to the fact that downtown is usually busier than this, but even under normal circumstances it's not the busiest part of town. That would be the area around Woodland Hills Mall near 71st and Memorial. I won't drive in that area unless it's completely unavoidable as the traffic is beyond ridiculous.
Yeah true, I live across the mall and traffic is insane on the weekends 😂
I'm sorry but as somebody who lives in tulsa, this video shows barely 2% of the city. He didn't even drive down Black Wall Street, it makes me wonder if he even researches his videos.
Downtown Tulsa is more for night life like concerts and evening dining. Of course it’s gonna be very empty earlier in the day. If you go to the Woodland Hills area that’s where most people that are out would be during the day.
If he only wants to do a downtown tour, he should go when there's a festival going on!! 😎
I was born and raised in Tulsa. Moved back recently and not too much has changed over the years. It is at least a growing and affordable place to live.
Why so little people walk on the streets of USA smaller or medium size cities? 400k city and so little people walking, i saw this pattern repeating in many of Nick videos were streets are shown.
Public transit in and around Tulsa sucks. Most people commute to work downtown from different areas of Tulsa or the various surrounding cities. There's some condos and apartments downtown, but it doesn't seem like all that many people live there. The streets get packed when there's big concerts in town and for the occasional festival, but are quiet during work hours (unless it's lunchtime).
everybody has cars, were spoiled
It's in the description...filmed the day after thanksgiving...the other hateful assholes commenting couldn't bother to read that part before spewing their ridiculous vitriol.
I'm gonna put that blame mostly on Covid. This was shot the day before my birthday and the day after Thanksgiving. From what I remember we were all told we shouldn't even go meet up with our families out of concern we might be carrying the virus and pass it to a loved one who may not be strong enough to fight it and live. I live so close to the center of downtown I can walk there in 10 minutes. If I were to go right now and shoot a video driving the same route, there would be loads of people walking around.
Because people are LAZY. Easy answer.
_Thanks for sharing another interesting dash board tour through the clean looking city of Tulsa Ok . The traffic denotes an early Sunday morning, during the pandemic quarantine. Best Wishes Sage n Nick_ 👍🇺🇲
I was wondering why there were so few people out and about!
They are either at work. At home, at a restaurant or running an errand instead of aimlessly driving through the warehouse sector.
Thank you for the tour of downtown Tulsa. It is my home and I loved that you paired my city with lively upbeat music.
When you Turn the corner at 2:15, Thats the Brady theater!!. I went to see Pantera there in 1996. Fantastic venue with a ton of history. Nice!!!!
I'm from Tulsa and it's beautiful Tulsa rose gardens and the gathering place are beautiful parks

Nick, Thank you😃 for sharing. Loved your info as well. Brigitte in Tulsa Oklahoma, as well.
Keep in mind this was recorded the day after Thanksgiving. Pretty much a ghost town.
Tulsa seems very awkward and I find myself asking why?
Based on this video, I would agree. However, he didn’t actually show anything about Tulsa.
I grew up in East Central Tulsa, just a few miles down Route 66 (we call it 11th Street here) from downtown to Yale. It’s recently become a one-lane road with a bike lane, so no one in their right mind wants to drive it. Add to that the also fairly recent addition of a loop at the downtown end of 11th, and you’ve cut down on people going downtown from a major feeder
lived in Tulsa for 2 years while I went to Spartan School of Aeronautics. It was awesome
I drove around downtown Tulsa for the first time 2 days after Thanksgiving 🦃 last year 😁 . I drove around downtown for 20 minutes or so, even driving beside one of the famed Apartments in Tulsa. Later on that morning, I drove up to Vinita and the Archway. Stayed 2 nights in Catoosa about 10 miles or so east of Tulsa. 😎 Went again during Christmas 🌲🎅 last year
Did u go to hard rock Tulsa

When were you there? What time of day and what day of the week. Just go to SE Tulsa and you will see tons of people. Broken Arrow, Bixby, Jenks, Owasso are loaded with people.
I live right by downtown and I can tell you it's much more active now! Restaurants are open again & people are moving out & about. Winterfest will bet set up in about a month and half by the arena. Why didn't you show Cathedral Corner with the beautiful architecture? We're known for having some if the best Art Deco architecture. Tulsa has a lot to offer and the best part of Tulsa is the people. Friendly and generous with smiles and helping hands. I'm thankful to live here.
Ive lived here all my life and Ive always heard of the times when it was booming, we had quite a few famous musicians live here as well, including George Harrison of the Beatles and a few others.
Cool!
George only visited Tulsa to do recordings with Leon Russell.
That was Eric Clapton hence why he did the song Tulsa Times
Haven't read all the comments. My family has lived in Tulsa over 100 years and I've seen downtown Tulsa booming in the 60's and 70's and then die in the 80's and 90's. Well downtown is back with a vengeance. Great restaurants and bars and lots of activity such as Tulsa Tough (one of the top 10 bike races in the nation) and Octoberfest (again one of the top 10 in the nation). Much better things to do and see in Tulsa.
i was really hoping you would see me driving by windows rolled down bumping music but you would have if you would have driven around more of the city
Try coming any other time than last year’s Covid scare lol, we have lots of people out and about all the time.
P.s. downtown is like 2% of Tulsa. Most people are south Tulsa. Lots more things to do and see
Right like on 71st around Mingo any time of the day. I try to stay off that street as much as humanly possible lol.
@@TwistedSense EXACTLY 😂😂
I see a lot of comments wondering why it looks like a ghost town. Im assuming Nick was there during business hours of a colder looking day. The only time downtown really has foot traffic is Saturday night in the blue dome district with good weather, during a big concert at the BOK, or lunch time during the week in the business district. Other than that, all the action happens on Brookside, Utica, Cherry Street or the suburbs where all of the money is. Tulsa is similar to Portland Oregon in the fact that the neighborhoods outside of downtown are where people like to hangout and eat - and the naturey areas like the arkansas river trails, gathering place, turkey mountain, lakes, etc. But yes, Tulsa’s downtown has never really been its strength.
Email me maybe you can do some Oklahoma Trivia! NickJohnsonNC18@gmail
I would disagree that downtown has never really been its strength. Up until the 1960’s downtown was the shopping hub of the city. It was packed during the day with shoppers and even the evening with theater goers as there were numerous movie theaters in and around downtown. It wasn’t until Southroads and Southland shopping centers were built that downtown started to become a less traveled area.
Same with down town Minneapolis and St Paul. No one is just chilling in down town during the day. Only like 4 college campuses downtown Minneapolis and not very social. Even less people out in down town St. Paul
In the video he says he was there on Black Friday, downtown is definitely a ghost town on black friday.
He did not go to the Art District or to Guthrie Green. Additionally, a lot of people were at Gathering Place on the day after Thanksgiving in 2020. That’s where I was.
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Appreciated, Nick. By the way, did you see more of the area? If so, will you share with your audience what it’s like?
@Love Laugh Live.. More dispensaries and homeless people on every corner than anything and I never known Tulsa for bbq....
@@Chris-qi5kn yeah. I don’t get the BBQ reference either. Nick didn’t do much, if any, research for this video.
@@tulsabeasley918 I would say Tulsa is known for BBQ but it is definitely unique. It's a mix of Texas BBQ and Kansas City BBQ. We also do BBQ Bologna which I found out was a Tulsa thing after living in a few other places. But I always found myself wishing I had some Tulsa BBQ.
Love Tulsa has four resorts in the immediate area including Hard Rock and Riverspirit. Tulsa is more of a family place with the best suburbs in the country. Bixby especially but BA , Jenks, Bristow. Are nice too.
We definitely have some great BBQ! He forgot fried onion burger and fried catfish.
I lived in Tulsa back back in 98-99 on the south east side. Tulsa had crime everywhere back then. We were always told to stay away from Peoria back then...
Crime is pretty bad still
It's gotten alot better since the bad old days
@Summer D I have lived here since 2007 I know all about tusla an it's gotten alot better I guess u have no idea what I'm talking about 61?
@Summer D but I still would not want to live on 61 with my kids I did for along time on madison. I live on 13th now an have a for quite a while
@Summer D they do they are good people in bad spots. Thank you have a great day!!
You missed Cain's Ballroom...the 2nd home of Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys. Shame on you!
You said Tulsa is known for 4 things, but you only mentioned 3. What's the 4th thing??
i really appreciate the drive through downtown to show me what it looks like
Use to live in Tulsa went to ORU Graduate School. MIss Rubicon 🥔 Potatoes The Best and Lasalle's Deli New Orleans 😋.
Great video Nick.👍👍👍
Ok dr Leo
I have a theory that Tulsa doesn’t have that much crime, they just have a lot of cops arresting people and reporting it. They aren’t “cooking the books”. I lived in OKC where you can’t go to the drug store and back without seeing cops, and I’ve been to Tulsa, I’ve partied downtown. It didn’t seem that bad for crime to me. Am I wrong?
I live in OKC. Tulsa isn't bad, but I'm much happier in OKC.
More to do but Tulsa is prettier
No OKC is prettier then Tulsa! I lived here ten yrs and it sucks
@@jenniferyates1152 heck no! Idk what you see lol

How is this video uploaded 1 month ago, starting this was shot in late November but it isn't even halfway through November yet? 🤔
I did not see Driller man or Caine's Ballroom or the Gathering or Chimis or Freddy's, Swan lake, Phillibrook ,Tulsa to me is a special place
Not much traffic downtown. Was this shot on a weekend?
Holiday
Glenpool is where the highest oil producers was right down the road from Tulsa
I’m al looking for a place to start fresh, away from everyone & start from the ground up. I hope this is the place for me ❤️
Don't think I didn't see you run that light my man🤣🤣🤣. Great video my man, however, if you did a part two, post Covid intro, you'd really get the essence of downtown T-TOWN.
I thought I was watching the 1971 sci-fi movie, "The Omega Man", where Colonel Robert Neville drives everyday through deserted Los Angeles, emptied by a devastating global plague.
Tulsa is scary to look at for a Los Anegeleno or New Yorker used to packed streets and sidewalks and constant street noise day and night.
Live here 50 miles fromTulsa. There is coffee shops and places to go. Tulsa has a cool downtown park with cafes and such. There is a zoo, air and space museum and if you go to Jenks there is an aquarium near several shops and the river walk. Lived here 15+ years. The people are great but they do not understand 4 way stops😁. I am originally from Northeast.
Sounds great I love it
Where is Slvestor Stallone
During the week and holidays… downtown is scarce, but during the weekends, it’s packed full of thousands of people, including the river walk
Tulsa is such a beautiful city all year round.
Happy Weekend Nick & Everyone Love 💘 😘 ❤ 💕 💙 💖 to All
Have lived in Tulsa for 30 years.. you should see it when it's poppin. But this is a good video, a good drive-thru to show the buildings and such downtown. Tulsa however is huge. It's a great place
Are all of the traffic lights in Tulsa on poles on the side of the street? I live in Florida where they hang over the center of the intersections. Very different.
Oklahoma native (of European, not tribal decent) here. I think it's important to point out that Tulsa is spread out, not up like many major cities in the U.S. Hence, the lack of many skyscrapers. All the traffic lights downtown are on poles as seen in the video. Outside of downtown, traffic lights throughout the city are strung OVER the streets corresponding to the lane you are currently in which (I think) is what you are referring to. Fun fact, Tulsa is where the FIRST parking meter was installed.
I hope this helps. ✌
The same cars keep passing you like they were following you around!?
I nearly laughed out loud when I heard you were driving around the industrial and business area of Tulsa on Black Friday during the pandemic, and you wondered where all the people were. We didn't even get together for an in-person Thanksgiving that year. A lot of people were still working remotely. And we sure don't hang out in that part of town when we do go out!
Love Tulsa ❤️
One of my best friends live there, love going out to visit her 😊
My night off, watching some of your videos and going to dinner with friends!
You need to start selling Mappy t-shirts. Maybe with his pic and the slogan "Mappy Knows Where It's At".
The downtown area is usually dead like this during the morning time. The city itself is changing for the better although there isn't nearly as much to do here than other similar sized cities. Also the downtown portion is relatively small compared to the other outlying parts of the city. There's also Broken Arrow, Owasso and several other towns in the area that are worth a visit as well. And OKC is only about 75 minutes away
I like the overview gave. Thanks for the time and effort you put into your content!
Please do good and bad video on Houston and Dallas someday🙏🙏. Cheers for the content though!
The thing that struck me as unusual for this video is I didn't really see anyone walking or barely driving the streets. It seemed like a ghost city. Nick, I am dying to ask you a question. I have watched most, if not all of your driving videos and I have always wanted to ask you. What is the total mileage on your vehicle? or rather what is the total mileage that you think you have driven?
Covid, Thanksgiving...
I Love That old Movie Titled "Tulsa" written about the oil boom in chronological order. Very good I suggest it.
Used to have family that lived in Tulsa. Don't miss those trips lol
