2021 Tulsa Equality Score: 39.2 out of 100
Measuring progress towards greater equality in the City of Tulsa
Tulsa Equality Indicators was initiated in 2017 by the City of Tulsa and Community Service Council as a tool to measure and track disparities among subgroups of Tulsans over time. Four years of quantitative data are now available to inform our city and community leaders about inequalities in opportunities and outcomes, and to guide public policy and innovative solutions that will lead to greater equity for all Tulsans.
Six Themes of Equality
These six themes serve as the foundation for the Tulsa Equality Indicators tool. Each of the six themes is divided into three topics consisting of three indicators—54 indicators in total. View the scores for each indicator >

NEW! Data for Action Local Resource Guide
This year, the Data for Action Resource Guide serves as an accompaniment to the Tulsa Equality Indicators report highlighting the many programs, services and policies that are taking place in Tulsa to address disparities found in the Equality Indicators data.
Since the City of Tulsa released its first Equality Indicators report in 2018, the report has become a tool that Tulsans from every sector and part of the City use to advocate for change, focus resources, and drive decision making. This report is a consistent example of our city’s commitment to use data to inform our policies, practices and programs.
