The neighborhood

Broken Arrow, Oklahoma

Established streets, strong schools, and an easy drive into Tulsa. Here is what life looks like around 2400 S Willow Ave.

The area

One of Oklahoma's most established suburbs

Broken Arrow sits roughly 15 miles east of Tulsa and is one of Oklahoma's largest suburbs, home to about 116,000 residents. The area around South Willow Avenue is a quiet, family-friendly corridor of established single-family homes, with most neighbors owning their properties and parks and schools close by.

The home at 2400 S Willow Ave sits in the Pembrooke Park area, just off East Albany Street, and is zoned to Union Public Schools, one of the region's top districts, even though the mailing address carries a Broken Arrow city name. That combination of an established neighborhood and a highly regarded school district makes this a popular pocket for relocating families.

Parks & recreation

More than 40 parks, 1,000 acres of green space

Broken Arrow's parks system is one of the city's quiet strengths. The flagship is Ray Harral Nature Center and Park, a 40-acre preserve with about three miles of trails, a natural spring system, pollinator gardens, and a suspension bridge over the creek. Battle Creek Golf Club, Indian Springs Sports Complex, and Nienhuis Skate Park round out the options for weekends outdoors.
