Oakland town, FL in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Oakland town is a small town in Florida, with 3,566 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #553 of 955 ranked by population — larger than 42% of them. The median age here is 40.2 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.

Households in Oakland town earn a median of $142,917 a year, 82% above the national figure of $78,538 and 108% above the $68,617 median for the 775 Florida cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 7.5% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Oakland town is valued at $487,900, 60.8% above the national figure and 60% above the $305,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,279 a month, 62.1% above the national figure, or roughly $27,348 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19.1% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 82.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
