Sand Springs, OK Condos for Sale

Sand Springs began its journey in 1908 when oilman Charles Page bought land west of Tulsa to create a refuge for local orphans and widows. During the following century, the settlement on the Arkansas River evolved into an industrial center known for auto and glass manufacturing. With a current population of 20,000, the suburb is “the biggest small town you’ve ever seen,” according to Adam Callaway. “It’s got a lot of growth happening, but it has that old-school vibe, like a rural town,” says the Realtor with Keller Williams Advantage. Families are drawn to the highly rated school district, which has a significant community presence. The nearby Keystone Ancient Forest, a 1300-acre woodland populated by centuries-old cedars and post oaks, is a natural marvel. The Sand Springs Public School District earns a B-plus from Niche and is the city’s largest employer. The annual Monster Ball, a costume party held by Charles Page High School’s softball and baseball teams, raises funds for the local Special Olympics chapter. Parents might also choose to send their kids to Lake Country Christian School, a private learning institution serving students from pre-kindergarten through grade eight.
