A hop, skip and a jump from Hawthorne Elementary

When Melanie Hughes-Morris was growing up in Hawthorne, a neighborhood 4 miles north of downtown Tulsa, she thought the streets were paved with gold — or at least yellow bricks. “When we were kids, we thought it was like ‘The Wizard of Oz,’” says Hughes-Morris, a Realtor with Chinowth & Cohen. “But it went downhill a little in the 1980s and ’90s. It’s coming back, though. The prices are up, and it’s an area where people want to live because it’s close to the elementary school.” With the Gilcrease Expressway bordering the neighborhood to the south, it’s easy for residents to make their way to Oklahoma’s second-largest city.

The trail to Hawthorne Park

The Osage Prairie Trail, a paved multiuse path, travels through Hawthorne on its 16-mile journey from Tulsa to Skiatook. The trail functions as a bicycle commuter link to Oklahoma State University-Tulsa and Langston University, but the level surface makes it equally appealing to runners, walkers and inline skaters. Between East 33rd and 36th streets, the path runs parallel to the open grassy space at Hawthorne Park.

Manufacturing the future at McLain High School

Hawthorne Elementary School sprouts up from a convenient location on the neighborhood’s eastern edge, adjacent to the park that shares its name. Students move on to Monroe Demonstration Academy in nearby Northridge for grades 6 through 8. Next comes McLain High School for Science and Technology, also in Northridge. The high school features numerous extracurricular activities and specialized programs, including an onsite TulsaTech program focusing on manufacturing. Niche gives a C-minus to each school. Also in the neighborhood is Crossover Preparatory Academy, a private boys’ school for grades 6 through 9.

Ranch-style homes dating to the 1950s

A collection of fixer-uppers awaits the right hands for restoration. Pockets of lawn separate the single-story ranch houses from the quiet residential streets. Most homes date to the 1950s and include attached garages and driveways, and paved sidewalks throughout the neighborhood promote walkability. A home needing major renovations might sell for as little as $40,000, while a renovated three-bedroom ranch costs around $150,000.

The sidewalks of Hawthorne create safe spaces for walking and jogging.

Onward to Osage Casino

The Gilcrease Expressway traverses the neighborhood's southern border, and 36th Street cuts a path across the northern edge. Hawthorne offers quick access to Tulsa International Airport: The drive typically takes less than 10 minutes — about the same time it takes to get to downtown Tulsa. MetroLink buses stop along 36th Street, North Hartford Avenue and North Peoria Avenue for those who prefer not to drive. Two miles west, Tulsa’s Osage Casino Hotel offers gaming and nightlife within a five-minute drive.

Short drive to Seminole Hills Shopping Center

When grocery supplies run low, it’s only a few miles to Oasis Fresh Market on North Peoria Avenue. The market is one of the locations for the Tulsa Public Schools Summer Cafe, which provides free breakfast and lunch to all children under the age of 18 on weekdays throughout the summer. Seminole Hills Shopping Center is across the street with fast-food options like Taco Bell, Subway, Burger King and Sonic. In the northeast corner of the neighborhood near the fire station, the EAT36STN park features a rotating roster of food trucks to tempt taste buds and support local entrepreneurs. Ralph's Menswear is a local favorite for the latest men's fashions, from casual to business wear.

Crime

CAP Index gives Hawthorne a crime score of 8 — double the U.S. average. The Tulsa Dream Center in nearby Walt Whitman offers kids a place to go after school and promotes food security and access to health care. The goal is to nourish the community’s roots so future generations can thrive.
