Tulsa County, not Tulsa
Tulsa County context, not Tulsa figures
These are Tulsa County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Tulsa measurements.
- Establishments in Tulsa County19,556
- Employment at those establishments, Tulsa County329,036
- Covered employment, Tulsa County368,636
- Average annual pay, Tulsa County$63,561
- Average weekly wage, Tulsa County$1,222
- Housing units permitted, Tulsa County2,818
- Of those, single family, Tulsa County2,224
- County product, 2024, Tulsa County$59,297,961,000
- County product change over the prior year, Tulsa County6.4 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Tulsa County$66,466
Every figure in this section is published for Tulsa County as a whole and is not a measurement of Tulsa. It is here because a county backdrop is what a credit committee reads a place against, and it is labelled so that it can never be quoted as the place's own.

Coverage
What this page does not hold.
Every item below could be filled with a plausible figure. None of them is. On a page a lender may read, a number that cannot be traced is worse than an absence, so the absences are named.
- This place is not listed as a community in the FEMA Community Status Book, so no NFIP participation or CRS class is shown.
- Parcel level detail, zoning and flood zone at an address are resolved in the platform, not on this page.
SBA figures count approvals to borrowers whose address is in the place. They are not approvals for projects inside the place boundary: the tape records a borrower city and a project county, and those can differ.
Common questions
Tulsa questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Tulsa, Oklahoma?
413,794, in 172,909 households. Tulsa city covers 197.74 square miles of land, which is 2,093 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is Tulsa in?
Tulsa lies in more than one. By area it is 87.9 percent in Tulsa County, 6.7 percent in Wagoner County, 5.3 percent in Osage County. This page sits under Tulsa County because that county holds the largest share. The split is measured from the Census boundary of the place against the county boundaries.
What is the median household income in Tulsa?
$59,838. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $205,300. Median gross rent is $1,052 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to Tulsa businesses?
515 7(a) approvals totalling $352.5 m, across 97 lenders, median approval $300,000, plus 172 504 approvals worth $123.2 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Tulsa, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Tulsa borrowers get paid back?
Of the 97 loans that have reached a final outcome, 91 were paid in full and 6 charged off, a charge off rate of 6.2 percent. Loans still running are excluded because they have not yet succeeded or failed.
Are the county figures on this page Tulsa figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Tulsa County as a whole and there is no place level equivalent. They appear in one clearly marked section as context and are never presented as measurements of Tulsa.
Is zoning published for Tulsa?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
