Oktaha town, OK in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Oktaha town is a very small community in Oklahoma, with 240 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #507 of 846 ranked by population — larger than 40% of them. The median age here is 35.3 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 Oktaha town earn a median of $53,542 a year, 31.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and within a couple of points of 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 11.7% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Oktaha town is valued at $89,300, 70.6% below the national figure and 29% below the $125,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $857 a month, 39% below the national figure, or roughly $10,284 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19.2% 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 1.7×, 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. 78.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.

With 240 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Oktaha town against its county rather than against national figures.
