Springer town, OK in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Springer town is a very small community in Oklahoma, with 876 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #261 of 846 ranked by population — larger than 69% of them. The median age here is 31.2 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 Springer town earn a median of $54,489 a year, 30.6% 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 15% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Springer town is valued at $150,000, 50.6% below the national figure and 19% above the $125,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,000 a month, 28.9% below the national figure, or roughly $12,000 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 22% 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 2.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 70% 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.

With 876 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Springer town against its county rather than against national figures.
