SFGate: The surprising destination luring California transplants with $10,000

August 4, 2025

More Californians are discovering that Tulsa offers something the West Coast can’t: a lower cost of living, a strong sense of community, and the space to build a life that feels balanced and fulfilling. In a recent SFGATE article, Tulsa Remote alumni share their stories of trading traffic, high rent, and burnout for affordability, creative momentum, and real connection.

From entrepreneurs launching businesses to remote professionals putting down roots, the piece highlights how the Tulsa Remote experience is about so much more than a $10,000 relocation grant. It’s about belonging and finding the freedom to design a life that aligns with your values.

The article also emphasizes how Tulsa's welcoming culture and supportive infrastructure make it easier for newcomers to thrive. From coworking spaces and local meetups to arts events and neighborhood gatherings, Tulsa offers the kind of connection and opportunity that’s hard to come by in bigger, more expensive cities.

With lower barriers to entry and a community that genuinely wants to see you succeed, Tulsa is becoming an increasingly attractive option for those looking to reset and reconnect.

👉 Read the full SFGATE feature to see why more Californians are choosing Tulsa as their next home.
