Cooper exists for convenience, and Re/Max Results Realtor Robert Smith says it is an ideal area for first-time homebuyers to find their footing in Tulsa. With three schools, a cluster of bus stops and locally beloved restaurants along the southern end, plus lower home prices compared to the greater metro area, this Tulsa neighborhood delivers essentials within your budget.

Houses here – typically built in the late 1960s – come in a variety of styles, from partial-brick bungalows with narrow yards, to brick ranch-style homes with gabled roofs, garages and broad, fenced-in yards. Asking prices usually loom around $100,000, depending on square footage.

Students can easily walk to one of the neighborhood's schools since they are clustered in a line through the center of the neighborhood. Cooper Elementary serves prekindergarten through fifth grade and offers a dual language program, as well as several English language development teachers to support native Spanish speakers. East Central Middle School provides opportunities for students to engage in technical career learning and to earn high school credits via advanced classes, and East Central High offers paid internships with two of the city’s biggest aeronautics firms – Choose Aerospace and Spirit AeroSystems – as well as access to an on-campus fitness center after school hours.

For a specialized athletic experience, the locally beloved Team Tulsa Wrestling Club offers classes for those of all skill levels at a membership or per-lesson rate. Once they learn more tricks of the trade, wrestlers are encouraged to enter into tournaments, which are held throughout the city and state year-round.

Just north of Cooper Elementary lies popular hangout Hansel B. Johnson Park, made up of 5 grassy acres with a small picnic pavilion, a quaint green swing set, a pair of worn hard tennis courts and a gravel walking path that loops around it.

Cooper is known as a hotspot for Mexican cuisine. Widely considered the best in all of Tulsa, Doña Gloria’s has the works: tacos, enchiladas, tostadas and more. Just down the road is a fifth-generation authentic Mexican bakery with locations all around the city. Pancho Anaya has treats of all kinds, from cookies and pastries to breads and coffee. Keep moving east on 21st Street and you’ll reach Tacos Los Hermanos, lauded for its hand-made tortillas and selection of spicy dishes.

When it comes to game days, head to Torchy’s Briar Patch for an extensive beer and cocktail menu, billiards, socializing and large-screen TVs. For homecooking, Asian grocery store Nam-Hai Oriental, known for its seafood and fresh produce, awaits adjacent to Doña Gloria’s, or you can head north up Garnett Road to Price Mart.

For household items, Turning Point has you covered. This consignment store is packed with donated, gently used clothes, decorations, electronics, appliances, dressers – just about every necessity imaginable. All of its proceeds go to Loaves & Fishes Ministries, which feeds more than 10,000 people per year.

Though Cooper checks all the boxes when it comes to daily needs, downtown Tulsa lies just 10 miles west, making more entertainment, shopping and dining options easily accessible.
