Tulsa, Oklahoma is rolling out the red carpet for remote workers with an enticing financial incentive. The city is offering a generous £8,400 ($10,000) cash bonus to professionals willing to relocate and work remotely from its vibrant urban hub.
Why Tulsa Wants You
This bold initiative, part of the Tulsa Remote programme, aims to attract skilled workers and inject fresh energy into the local economy. Successful applicants not only receive the cash windfall but also gain access to coworking spaces and networking opportunities with Tulsa’s growing community of digital nomads.
The Application Process
Interested candidates must meet specific criteria:
- Full-time remote employment with a company outside Tulsa County
- Minimum annual salary of £50,000 ($60,000)
- Commitment to living in Tulsa for at least one year
The programme has already welcomed over 2,000 remote workers since its 2018 launch, with participants hailing from tech hubs like San Francisco and New York.
What Tulsa Offers New Residents
Beyond the financial incentive, Tulsa boasts:
- A low cost of living compared to coastal cities
