Oakwood Park, MO population, income and ZIP codes

Oakwood Park village is a very small community in Missouri, with 224 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #712 of 1,082 ranked by population — larger than 34% of them. The median age here is 37.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Oakwood Park village earn a median of $85,000 a year, 8.2% above the national figure of $78,538 and 53% above the $55,543 median for the 374 Missouri 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 Oakwood Park village is valued at $169,200, 44.2% below the national figure and 11% above the $152,400 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,425 a month, 1.4% above the national figure, or roughly $17,100 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.1% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 91.5% 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.
