Mill Creek town, OK in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Mill Creek town is a very small community in Oklahoma, with 248 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #498 of 846 ranked by population — larger than 41% of them. The median age here is 48.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Mill Creek town earn a median of $36,875 a year, 53% below the national figure of $78,538 and 31% below 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 13.4% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Mill Creek town is valued at $60,000, 80.2% below the national figure and 52% below the $125,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $750 a month, 46.7% below the national figure, or roughly $9,000 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 24.4% 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 1.6×, 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. 81.4% 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. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
