Midwest City, OK population, income and ZIP codes

Midwest City city is a small city in Oklahoma, with 58,170 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #8 of 846 ranked by population — larger than 99% of them. The median age here is 36.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in Midwest City city earn a median of $57,739 a year, 26.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 8% above the $53,500 median for the 240 Oklahoma cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 15.3% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Midwest City city is valued at $158,400, 47.8% below the national figure and 26% above the $125,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,046 a month, 25.6% below the national figure, or roughly $12,552 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 21.7% 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 2.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 57% 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.

All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
