Crescent Heights
Suburban Neighborhood in Tulsa, Oklahoma
Tulsa County 74112, 74128
Brick ranch-style homes with generous lawns
Brick ranch-style houses dating to the 1960s are typical in this part of Tulsa, but generous lot sizes set apart the homes in Crescent Heights. A half-acre to an acre provides enough space to host outdoor gatherings, put up a playset or plant a garden. Stout rows of mature trees lend shade and privacy to front and back lawns. Some properties include attached garages, and most have plenty of driveway space. There aren’t many sidewalks, so pedestrians should be prepared to navigate traffic. Prices start at $200,000 and cap off around $300,000, depending on square footage and lot size.

Disc golf at Dovillio
Joggers, dog walkers and cyclists head to the Mingo Trail to get their daily exercise. The multiuse path traverses 5 miles as it winds along the shore of Mingo Creek. Picnic tables are alongside the path for those who want to make a day of it. Following the trail across Route 66 leads to the Dovillio Disc Golf Course, a flat and lightly wooded course offering a variety of shot shapes.

Starting out at Skelly Elementary
School days begin at Skelly Elementary, a dual-language school that earns a C-minus from Niche. After that, students move on to Hale Middle School, which also gets a C-minus, and Nathan Hale High School, which receives a C. None of these schools are in the neighborhood, but each is within 3 miles.
A Crescent of highways
Crescent Heights residents have access to several of the city’s major highways. The Mingo Valley Expressway and Interstate 44 create the eastern and southern borders, respectively. Route 66 cuts a path through the neighborhood's top half, serving as the major thoroughfare and providing a straight shot to downtown Tulsa 10 miles away. The trip downtown takes about 40 minutes via the MetroLink Tulsa bus system, which has a few stations and stops along Route 66. Tulsa International Airport is about 4 miles away.
Hitch a ride to Freddie’s Hamburgers
The ride along Route 66 reveals a trove of dining options, with many showcasing the neighborhood's Hispanic influence. El Gallo Loco, a casual Mexican joint, is tucked within a small shopping center near the disc golf course. More Tex-Mex favorites are available at El Chico on the other end of the neighborhood. The closest grocery option is Las Americas on South Garnett Road, about 1 mile away. Freddie’s Hamburgers is a classic roadside stop with cherry-colored vinyl stools alongside a Formica counter. Juicy burgers topped with squares of golden cheese arrive on red-and-white checkered paper. On the way home, motorists can stop by the disco-themed car wash to shine up their rides.Crime
CAP Index gives Crescent Heights a crime score of 6, higher than the national average of 4 but low compared to downtown Tulsa. Data shows that substance abuse, economic suppression and housing insecurity contribute to the high crime rates in the region.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
