The most dangerous place in Oklahoma in 2023 will be Tulsa.
A new study from Southwest Journal, named Oklahoma the tenth most dangerous state in the U.S. There were a lot of crimes in places like Tulsa, Idabel, and Anadarko. Even though general crime has gone down a little, Oklahoma City is still on the list because of slower changes. This shows that state-wide safety problems still exist. The most dangerous place to live in Oklahoma in 2023 is Tulsa, which is the state’s second-largest city. With 72 killings in 2020, Tulsa has the second-highest rate of serious crime in the country. There is an 88/100 chance that a resident will be robbed, raped, assaulted, or killed. There is a lot of property crime in Tulsa, especially thefts, which accounted for 4,407 cases in 2020. This report is a strong warning to people in the area, especially those who live in areas that need extra safety care.
