Overland Park city, KS in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Overland Park city is a mid-size city in Kansas, with 197,199 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #2 of 740 ranked by population — larger than 99% of them. The median age here is 38.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. At this size the Census also publishes one-year estimates; the five-year values used here are steadier and let you compare against smaller neighbours on the same basis.
Households in Overland Park city earn a median of $103,838 a year, 32.2% above the national figure of $78,538 and 63% above the $63,750 median for the 200 Kansas cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 4.9% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Overland Park city is valued at $384,400, 26.7% above the national figure and 193% above the $131,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,455 a month, 3.5% above the national figure, or roughly $17,460 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 16.8% 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 3.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 61.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
