Geronimo town, OK in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Geronimo town is a small town in Oklahoma, with 1,161 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #218 of 846 ranked by population — larger than 74% of them. The median age here is 31.8 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Geronimo town earn a median of $64,250 a year, 18.2% below the national figure of $78,538 and 20% above the $53,500 median for the 240 Oklahoma 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 13.6% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Geronimo town is valued at $88,200, 70.9% below the national figure and 30% below the $125,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,115 a month, 20.7% below the national figure, or roughly $13,380 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.8% 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 1.4×, 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. 75.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
