Allen town, OK in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Allen town is a very small community in Oklahoma, with 966 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #245 of 846 ranked by population — larger than 71% of them. The median age here is 37 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 Allen town earn a median of $42,708 a year, 45.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 20% 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 16.2% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Allen town is valued at $82,200, 72.9% below the national figure and 35% below the $125,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $919 a month, 34.6% below the national figure, or roughly $11,028 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 25.8% 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 1.9×, 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. 67.9% 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.

With 966 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Allen town against its county rather than against national figures.
