Afton town, OK in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Afton town is a very small community in Oklahoma, with 804 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #278 of 846 ranked by population — larger than 67% of them. The median age here is 39.3 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 Afton town earn a median of $46,571 a year, 40.7% below the national figure of $78,538 and 13% below the $53,500 median for the 240 Oklahoma 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 18% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Afton town is valued at $85,600, 71.8% below the national figure and 32% below the $125,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $764 a month, 45.7% below the national figure, or roughly $9,168 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19.7% 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 1.8×, 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. 69.9% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
