I don't live on the west side, but I work there, have friends that live there, and shop and eat over there.  Only crime I've seen in Red Fork is the lunch buffet at Ollie's on certain days. [}:)]

I could not let this pass, I grew up in the Red Fork area, attended church at Red Fork Baptist Church (please save you're Baptist comments)and attended school. The only rats I ever saw were those car loads coming from east Tulsa looking for trouble after a friday night football game. Red Fork put Tulsa on the map. Without Red Fork and it's oil well there probably would have never been a Tulsa to speak of. The friends and family I have there and have had in the past are the reason for my success, however humble it may be, today. Good and honest people with a work ethic that seconds to none. Red Fork, in it's past glory was full of economic vigor. Hard times in the last 20 years has taken it's toll in some of it's areas and it's true that some of the homes there may not be up to certian levels of refinement and culture but I would rather live in the Red Fork area over any other place in the world. I miss it and it's people. Someday soon I will return there to retire and God willing spend my final days there. If you don't like Red Fork stay home. Those of us who cherish it will gladly live our peaceful lives without the benefit of your presence

When I first moved to Tulsa I lived at the base of Look Out Mountain.  I could walk cross country right up to KTUL.  It's quiet except for the trains, little crime.  Red Fork's alright.

My grandmother is 92 years old and never misses a Sunday at Red Fork Baptist Church.

Red Fork Main Street is going to make west Tulsa the place to be in a few years.

Really, I wonder if I know her. I go back to the days of Hub Collier as pastor, then Garnett Cole.
