Broken Arrow is a thriving, family-friendly suburb with a pleasant, walkable historic downtown, plentiful parks and trails, good restaurants and shops, and a lower cost of living—comfortable and interesting for multi‑week stays or repeat assignments.
It’s only 15–20 minutes from Tulsa—offering major museums, live music, pro sports and an international airport—and about 35 miles from Muskogee for riverfront recreation and regional museums, so you’ll have plenty of weekend options without feeling stuck.
