Tulsa has been very fortunate to have not been hit by a serious tornado in quite some time. A word about those older homes in Tulsa: if you're able to do a lot of maintenance yourself, they're fine. Otherwise, they can quickly become a money pit. I will say midtown Tulsa is absolutely beautiful and there's plenty to do in that area vs. say.. Owasso or Jenks.

You might be money ahead to just buy a storm cellar instead though. I'm planning a backyard remodel in the next few years. Storm cellars are surprisingly affordable.
