Prattville is located 10 miles west of Tulsa, and can be found on the south banks of the Arkansas River. In 1945, approximately 4 houses and two small grocery stores were located north of 41st Street and east of Highway 97 in what was known as Garden Heights, now referred to as "old Prattville." Several years later another grocery store and housing addition were built on the west side of Highway 97, forming the nucleus of then-called "Prattville." In October 1962, the Prattville community, consisting of 752 acres owned at one time by Harry Pratt, was annexed by Sand Springs. With the opening of the 41st Street bridge, the building of Keystone Dam and the migrating of Tulsa residents into the area, Prattville experienced phenomenal growth. Several industries once operated on the river near the Highway 97 bridge in an area called Lotsee. Other communities/towns in and around Prattville include: Prettywater, Keystone, Berryhill and Limestone. High school students residing in Prattville attend Charles Page High School in Sand Springs; however, Prattville does have Clyde Boyd Middle School and several elementary schools. Most businesses in Prattville are retail stores along State Highway 97.
