 Good morning, this is Tulsa Local Pulse for Saturday, December 6, 2025.

We wake up today with calm, cool weather across Tulsa. Skies stay mostly clear, highs sit in the upper 50s, and light north winds make it feel crisp but comfortable for anything outdoors. We stay dry through tonight, with just a slight warmup and a small chance of showers late Sunday into Monday, so we can plan on getting outside today without much worry.

From city hall, Tulsa officials are pushing ahead on water-quality protections. A recent filing by the City of Tulsa and the Metropolitan Utility Authority challenges an Arkansas pollution permit for the Decatur wastewater plant, arguing it could increase pollution flowing into the watershed that feeds our drinking water. City leaders say they want stronger safeguards to protect what comes out of our taps here at home.

In business news, public notices in the Tulsa World this week show a steady trickle of new alcohol license applications around downtown and along South Peoria, a sign that bars and restaurants are still investing in our nightlife. Commercial brokers report that asking rents in key corridors like Brookside and Cherry Street are holding steady, while warehouse space near Highway 169 continues to move quickly as logistics and light manufacturing stay strong.

On the job front, local recruiters say Tulsa’s unemployment rate is holding near the mid three percent range, and employers around the Inner Dispersal Loop are still posting openings in health care, energy services, and tech support. They are especially looking for nurses, CDL drivers, and entry level IT help desk workers, many starting in the low to mid twenty dollar an hour range.

For real estate, agents around midtown say the median home price in Tulsa is hovering around two hundred fifty thousand dollars, with homes near Utica Square and along Riverside Drive still seeing multiple offers if they are priced right and move in ready. Buyers are taking advantage of slightly lower mortgage rates compared to earlier this year, and open houses this weekend are busy but not frantic.

On the cultural side, downtown is lively tonight, with local bands playing along Main Street in the Arts District and small holiday markets popping up near Guthrie Green and the Blue Dome District. Families are heading to Philbrook and Gathering Place for holiday lights and photo ops as the sun goes down.

In sports, the University of Tulsa men’s basketball team is back at the Reynolds Center this afternoon at 2 p.m., hosting Missouri State and looking for an eighth win and a fifth straight victory. The Golden Hurricane come in 7 and 1 after putting up 111 points against Manhattan Christian, their highest scoring game in years. Over at the BOK Center, the Tulsa Oilers are on the road tonight in Wichita, with rookie forward Adam McMaster sitting near the top of ECHL rookies in goals as the Oilers try to climb back to a five hundred record.

Around our schools, Owasso Public Schools just received an A plus rating on new educational facilities lease bonds from S and P Global, a sign of strong finances that should help keep borrowing costs lower as the district invests in classrooms and facilities for students north of town.

Looking at public safety, Tulsa police report several vehicle break ins over the past 24 hours in neighborhoods just east of Riverside Drive and around 21st Street, with most cases involving unlocked cars. Officers are reminding all of us to remove valuables from vehicles and lock doors, especially overnight. There have also been a few arrests tied to ongoing property crime investigations, and detectives continue to stress that home security cameras and quick reporting by neighbors have helped them track suspects.

For a feel good story, volunteers with local churches and nonprofits gathered yesterday near Admiral and Lewis to hand out warm coats and hot meals, making sure families have what they need as we head deeper into the holiday season. Several small businesses along Route 66 chipped in gift cards and supplies, a reminder of how our community steps up for one another.
