Real MLS numbers and local knowledge for the Walnut Creek subdivision near ORU in south Tulsa. No fluff - just what the market is actually doing.
Walnut Creek sits in the part of south Tulsa often labeled the Oral Roberts–Walnut Creek area on real estate maps - the corridor around ORU, between the Arkansas River and South Lewis Avenue. School assignment is Jenks Public Schools. The subdivision dates to 1966–1978, and the housing stock carries the character of that era: split-levels, Tudor and French-influenced designs, interior crown molding, and lots with mature trees.
The median sold home over the last six months measured about 2,274 square feet. 10 sales closed in the six months ending 08/31/2026, from $250,000 to $465,000, with the median at $360,000 and a median price per square foot of $155. The spread reflects condition: original-condition 1970s homes and fully updated ones trade in noticeably different lanes here.
Pace was patient - about 36 days on market on average. Homes of this vintage reward preparation: the listings that move quickly are the ones priced against current comps and presented with the big questions (roof, systems, updates) already answered.
The location is one of the neighborhood's practical strengths. Helmerich Park and the river trails are minutes west, Turkey Mountain's 26 miles of trails are just across the river, and the 71st Street retail corridor is a short drive. Downtown Tulsa runs about 15 minutes up Riverside Drive.
