I Drove Through The WORST Hoods In Tulsa, Oklahoma. It's Infamous.

This is the most dangerous part of the whole state of Oklahoma!
In this video, I drove through the worst neighborhoods in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The consensus among crime report data, poverty data and word of mouth is that the worst parts of the Tulsa metro area are in North Tulsa, in a particular set of neighborhoods along Martin Luther King Dr Blvd. So that was the direction I would head. It was a miserable day - an overcast sky and highs in the low 40s. The day was Saturday, November 28, 2020 at about 2 pm.
As a whole, Tulsa has a crime rate that’s far above the national average. But the north side of Tulsa is responsible for more than its fair share of crime. In addition, the poverty levels in North Tulsa are the worst of this city’s regions - in many areas we’ll see, half of the households live in poverty.
North Tulsa is home to high crime rates, poverty, large amounts of drug use and gang activity. However, because it was mid afternoon, most of the criminal element was still indoors. Murders, robberies and sex crimes happen here more frequently than in other parts of this city of 400,000. It is truly one of the most economically depressed areas in the region. Besides the massive number of vacant and rundown homes, this part of Tulsa also has a majority of this city’s public housing projects.
North Tulsa became geographically separated from the rest of the city with the construction of I-244, isolating the poorer members of the community from the heart of Tulsa. With the construction of the housing projects in North Tulsa, many working class folks fled due to fear of criminal activity. This led to an even further decline of North Tulsa. Homes in this part of Tulsa average around $100,000. As you’ll see, many are rundown, abandoned, boarded up or just poorly maintained.
We’ll now enter the worst neighborhoods in Tulsa, in an area called Valley View, an area with an undisputed reputation throughout the state of Oklahoma. Homes in this part of Tulsa average around $100,000. Many were rundown, abandoned, boarded up or just poorly maintained.

[@1L6E6VHF]

@@LeveyHere For centuries, Brazil has had a big inequality problem. At it's founding, it had more slaves than free people, and slavery ended many years after the U.S. abolished it. 20 years ago, it started looking like Brazil was entering an era of more equality, progress and safety. But, more recently, the well-to-do sided with a Trump-like yahoo to protect their position of luxury. Class distinction is huge in Brazil. About 20% of the population lives well, maybe another 20% have modest apartments with appliances, but nearly half are in poverty. The sad thing is that Brazil has vast resources and opportunities, but not everyone has access to its potential. Lord knows that there is great beauty and potential there. I've even thought of trying to move there (Santa Catarina or Rio Grande do Sul).

I live in Tulsa, North Tulsa is NOT the worst part of Tulsa. Most of the problem people moved south, in particular 61st and Peoria. Theres still some issues in North Tulsa, but nowhere near as bad these days as it was a decade ago. Most of these neighborhoods you're touring are filled with retirees, not gangsters.

I am curious about all the vehicles, plus boats on a property, but the house itself is looking run down. Maybe you can answer, does that mean people are just renting there and not ultimately responsible for that upkeep or it's a thing to have numerous vehicles, recreational etc...as the priority ? I noticed that in several blocks shown in this video, so wondering if that is the culture of the neighbourhood showing ? One or two people out but not a lot of activity, otherwise. Nice enough streets to me. I live just behind Jane St. at Jane/Lawrence in Toronto, Ontario, Canada and EVERYONE says that neighbourhood is the worst...tons of families here, and they are all out during the summer. I get to know a lot of my neighbours giving treats out at Halloween, I make the kids tell me a joke for a treat, loads of fun, they really open up and compete with each other to tell their jokes!!

I disagree with your view. I am the Fire Marshal for this part of Tulsa and I drive around near "The Kitchen" where you videoed almost every day. Most people are friendly and try to do good. There are many churches, daycares and outreach services.In fact, if you go just south of where you were, around Reservoir Hill you will see beautiful homes and historic bungalows. There is a very beautiful old church and pastor house on the corner of Victoria St. and Boston Ave. that is just screaming out to be renovated and I am sure will be successful when it is done..... The fire protection in this area is the best in town. There are many bus routes and freeways here, even a casino. Businesses are coming back after a long absence. Public housing is just as good here as other parts of town. The schools are excellent. I have live within 5 miles of this area and couldn't be happier. With regards to I-244, you say it is a dividing barrier to the rest of the city....that is silly. What I-244 DID do is almost completely wipe out the Black Wall Street district around Greenwood Ave which had worked very hard to come back after the race riots of 1921. If you want to see poverty and neglect, you should take a stroll downtown near the jail and homeless shelters. It is as bad there as I saw it in L.A. back in the 80's. People living on the streets, under bridges and along the tracks...and this stretches far into ares of midtown and East Tulsa also. The Tulsa Fire Dept. is working tirelessly to help these folks and keep them safe with our C.A.R.E.S. Program and we have much work still to do.

They say “Thank you!” They are polite and appreciative. I have never felt in danger doing home health in this area. I recognized my clients homes as you drive through my coverage area... I think your review is biased. I once saw an old car stalled in an intersection you passed through on MLK Blvd. People of more than one race jumped out of their vehicles to help push the car out of the intersection. It was uphill so it didn’t work. Then I saw a guy with a lawn cutting business grab his gas can and run to the car and give him his gas to get it out of the intersection.

If this is the worst "hood" in oklahoma, oklahoma must not be too dangerous. I cruise through here every week and there's no issue or scary things.

[@flamingocreations8895]

I see you perform the "Oklahoma roll" very well (tapping your brakes as you roll through a stop sign). I grew up on the north side of Tulsa my whole life, about 5 blocks north of Admiral, and I'll be honest... This was just something you got used to, seeing dilapidated neighborhoods was and is the norm out that way.

😂 when my sister was learning to drive she didn’t understand yields. I told her “A yield is how most people treat a stop sign” She never messed one up again lol

[@angiedaniels5357]

Tulsa is a great city. You have good & bad everywhere, crime is in every state. I've known lots of good people in North Tulsa. Don't judge people you think are poor. Sometimes a simple life can be the Biggest Blessings! Maybe you should point out the good in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

You should do that drive at night. That is when things get really interesting.

No, it’s still mostly quiet. I live out this way so I would know. 🙄

@@Mama-vd1lk you live on all of North Tulsa?

[@carolyndavis6657]

Some of the houses look pretty nice. It's alot nicer than an area I accidentally ended up in in Birmingham. There a good portion of the homes had boarded up windows and because it was hot (June) everyone was sitting outside. Very sad.

[@charleskosyjana1295]

That area looks like a rather nice working class neighborhood very similar to where I currently live in the Baltimore MD area. It certainly didn't LOOK like a high crime area at all. They houses seemed rather well kept up and most had more then 1 car.

I lived in a couple sections Out North. It's good people out there just our state minimum wage hasn't moved in years adversely affecting poverty across the city(county). I grew up in Jersey City.

What's the rent on a one bedroom,and are there sufficient jobs?

[@avalondauno]

@@tishreni5183 550 for a one bedroom 700-800 for a 2 bedroom and 900,950 and up for 3 bedroom and up

[@tishreni5183]

@@avalondauno That's not too bad,thanks.

[@YouT00ber]

Don’t forget about the globalism and all the jobs shipped to China and illegal immigration keeping wages low.

[@endi3999]

And code enforcement does nothing about code violations when reported. They want you to talk to the violator; I thought that was the core of their job description

[@user-tr3ry2xv5w]

You should drive through compton
