Oologah town, OK in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Oologah town is a small town in Oklahoma, with 1,766 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #158 of 846 ranked by population — larger than 81% of them. The median age here is 36.5 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 Oologah town earn a median of $83,977 a year, 6.9% above the national figure of $78,538 and 57% 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 11.4% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Oologah town is valued at $186,100, 38.7% below the national figure and 48% above the $125,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $942 a month, 33% below the national figure, or roughly $11,304 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 13.5% 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 2.2×, 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. 65.9% 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.

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.
