<strong>Tulsa</strong>’s historic urbanization trends are illustrated in<br />

the figure 3, below. Between 1900 and 1945, <strong>Tulsa</strong> was<br />

a relatively compact city. In the post World War II era,<br />

decentralizing growth. Over the last 35 years, that trend<br />

has continued.<br />

<strong>Tulsa</strong>’s historic urbanization<br />

trends have led to the<br />

decentralization of the city.<br />
