Tulsa, Oklahoma, made a big bet on remote workers in an effort to boost its economy and attract new residents.

The city launched a program called “Remote Tulsa” and it works by offering remote workers a package of incentives to move to Tulsa and work from there. The package includes:

Relocation stipend

Remote workers are eligible for a stipend of up to $10,000 to cover relocation expenses.

Co-working space

Remote workers receive a free co-working space for the first year, providing them with a place to work and network with other remote workers.

Network of remote workers

Remote Tulsa connects remote workers with a network of other remote workers in the city, providing them with opportunities to connect and collaborate.

To be eligible for the program, remote workers must have a remote-compatible job and be able to prove that they are working for a company outside of Tulsa. The program aims to attract highly skilled remote workers, including software developers, designers, marketers, and other professionals.

The goal of the program is to boost Tulsa’s economy by attracting new businesses and creating jobs. The city believes that by offering remote workers a lower cost of living and higher quality of life, it can attract and retain talented workers who will help drive economic growth.

The program has received national attention and has been praised for its innovative approach to economic development.
