Tuttle joins the ranks of several growing communities sprawling outwards from Norman and Oklahoma City. It maintains its rural energy despite the new activity, unlike its neighbor and age-old sports rival Blanchard.
“Between Blanchard and Tuttle, I would say Tuttle is holding its charms more,” says Meghan Groff, Realtor at Luxury Real Estate who helps residents find their homes in the communities outside Norman. “Their main area isn't developing or modernizing, and it’s kept its small-town feel over time. Everybody knows everybody, and neighborhoods are in more of a rural setup with more land than in Blanchard, where there are more opportunities to have close neighbors.”
Homes in downtown Tuttle surrounded by farms
A grid of historic homes built in the 1920s and 1930s surround Main Street, and brick frame ranch-style homes have stood strong since the mid-1970s. Meanwhile, rambling 3-bedroom homes with steep hipped roofs have continued to pop up since the early 2000s. Homeowners often have over an acre of manicured lawn space to work with. Long concrete driveways lead to two to three car garages on the most recent tawny brick homes, which incorporate Craftsman or Cape Cod flair into modern designs; properties continue to be built as Tuttle expands. Most homes sit between $230,000 to $450,000, with the occasional custom-built property reaching $600,000.
Bumpy country roads branch away from the center of town through short foliage and past clean stretches of tree-bordered farmland.

Home of the Tigers

Tuttle Middle School earns another A-minus. Finally, kids make their way across the street to Tuttle High School for a sports-focused, but academically driven experience; the school earns a B-plus from Niche and Jason White, the 2003 Heisman Trophy winner, is an alum.

Getting to and from Tuttle
Tuttle is close to several major highways, a perk for a largely car-dependent community. The shopping and dining options in the Tri-City Area are a 12-mile straight shot from the center of town. From there, locals can take Interstate 44 into downtown OKC, which is roughly 28 miles from Tuttle, or to Will Rogers World Airport, which is 23 miles away. The University of Oklahoma and Norman Regional Hospital aren’t much farther; residents drive about 30 miles on the H.E. Bailey Turnpike and Interstate 35 to get to each.
Shopping and dining on main
“Tuttle is a lot smaller compared to other areas nearby and has one main street,” says Christina Bowers, broker at Bowers Realty Group with a specialization in communities connected to the Tri-City Area. “It's the idea of a two-stoplight town with local restaurants and shops.” Residents can donate and shop at the Community Store thrift, run errands at Williams Foods, or grab take out Tex-Mex at Taco Mayo’s drive thru. For more options, they drive further down the road to the Tri-City Area, where Tuttle, Newcastle and Blanchard merge at a shopping district.

Visiting Schrock Park
West Creek flows through Schrock Park, Tuttle’s neighborhood green space. Disc golf players share space with kids running wild at the playground, families on a picnic, and walkers making their way through paved trails under tree shade. Baseball enthusiasts play on the sports fields and equestrians make use of the rodeo arena. Meanwhile, skaters hit the slopes at Tuttle Skate Park.

Bull riding and egg hunting
Along with being a sunny way to spend an afternoon, Schrock Park is also the site of several community events. Kids fill their baskets during the Tuttle Eggstravaganza Easter Egg Hunt and crowds fill the stands for the Tuttle Rodeo.
Meanwhile, Fourth St. Theater features locally acted and sponsored productions. The theater’s front yard is piled with pumpkins ready to be picked come October.
A train town with incoming healthcare job options
Train tracks pass through this historic railway neighborhood and cross Main Street, so residents may need to wait at a crossing every once in a while on their errands. Train sounds are a part of life for many Tuttle homeowners.
The Chickasaw Nation broke ground in February of 2023 for a large hospital in Newcastle which will provide job opportunities to healthcare professionals in nearby communities like Tuttle.

For some, the name “Bridge Creek” will call to mind harrowing stories from the infamous Bridge Creek-Moore Tornado that struck down in 1999. Today, the vast land surrounding this community is experiencing a new wave of interest as a result of the residential spread from Norman and Oklahoma City. The area provides a more secluded feel than its more densely populated neighbors.
“It’s not like Tuttle or Blanchard – driving through the main area it’s literally just a high school and fire department,” says Meghan Groff, a Realtor with Luxury Real Estate who works out of Blanchard to help homeowners find their place outside of OKC. “Residents go out to Blanchard or Newcastle for groceries and things like that.”
Drivers passing through Bridge Creek spot farmhouses and ranch-style homes on the edge of fields that stretch for acres. Driveways peel away from gravel roads closer to the center of town. Manufactured homes with hipped roofs and extra shed space will go for $140,000, while steel-framed farmhouses on several acres will go for up to $600,000. New homesites line the road for future homeowners to build on. These plots sell for under $100,000, while new builds with prominent garages and half acre lots go for roughly $350,000.
Students in Bridge Creek navigate the close-knit Bridge Creek School District, starting with Bridge Creek Early Childhood Center for grades kindergarten through second; the school earns an A-minus from Niche. They move up to Bridge Creek Intermediate-Elementary School – which earns a B-plus – for grades three through five, before making their way to Bridge Creek Middle School, which also earns an A-minus. Bridge Creek High School – the home of the Bobcats – earns a B-plus. All schools in the district follow a four-day school week model.
Interstate 44 cuts right past Bridge Creek’s town center and takes locals to downtown Oklahoma City in roughly 28 miles. They can use the same road to reach Will Rogers World Airport in 23 miles, the Tri-City Area shopping options in 13, or to head southwest to Grady Memorial Hospital in another 23 miles. The H.E. Bailey Turnpike leads to I-35, which takes residents further east to Norman.
Bridge Creek residents stay local for school, but all of their errands take place outside the area. They can head into nearby Tuttle for cookies and coffee at Tiger Shack Restaurant, stop by Family Dollar or grab tacos at Lupita’s Restaurant. Bridge Creek merges with its surrounding communities at the Tri-City Area, an intersection between major highways in Newcastle. A Walmart Super Center, Walgreens, and a plethora of chain restaurants can be found here.
There’s plenty of room to roam in Bridge Creek and fishing ponds scattered across the landscape, but for a true park experience residents will need to head into nearby Blanchard. The two playground sets and walking trails at Lions Park provide an all-day outdoor setting. Animal lovers can sleep overnight at Tiger Safari Zoological Park and enjoy interactive exhibits with friendly zoo animals.
The Bridge Creek High School boosters sponsor The Trails at Bridge Creek each Saturday in October, where students dress up as Halloween haunts and spook walkers. Other school-sponsored events take place at Ridgecrest Baptist Church. Football lovers head to Norman for The University of Oklahoma games.
“Bridge Creek is its own separate area, but the homes there have half Tuttle and half Blanchard addresses depending on where you are on a map,” Groff says.
Many new properties in the area are built on post-tension foundations with solid brick frames to protect against tornadoes; the most recent major touchdown was in 2015.
