ZIP code 74935

ZIP 74935 is a very small community in Le Flore County, Oklahoma, with 179 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #593 of 664 ranked by population — larger than 10% of them. The median age here is 36.8 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 ZIP 74935 earn a median of $36,250 a year, 53.8% below the national figure of $78,538. 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 30.7% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 74935 is valued at $106,300, 65% below the national figure, while median gross rent runs $850 a month, 39.5% below the national figure, or roughly $10,200 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 28.1% 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 2.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 76.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

ZIP 74935 is tabulated inside Le Flore County, Oklahoma, one of 19 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 664 across Oklahoma. This is one of the smallest tabulated ZIP areas in the state, the kind of rural route where a single subdivision or farm cluster accounts for most addresses. County assignment on this page follows the largest share of the ZIP's land area, which matters where a delivery route crosses a county line: mail addressed to 74935 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 74935 reports a median household income of $36,250, 25% below the $48,333 county median, and 37% below the $57,827 typical OK ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $106,300, 4% below the county figure and 18% below the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at $850 a month, which is why it reads higher than the advertised rent on a listing for the same unit.

Oklahoma charges 4.5% statewide, and local governments overlapping 74935 may add county, city or special-district levies on top. We publish the state floor for this ZIP rather than guessing a combined figure, because ZIP boundaries and taxing-district boundaries were drawn for different purposes and do not line up.

Everything above comes from the Census Bureau American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates for this ZIP Code Tabulation Area, with sales tax rates traced to the state revenue agency. Five-year estimates pool sixty months of responses, so they are stable enough to compare 74935 with its neighbours but always trail the current year, and any value the Census suppressed for sample size is shown as unpublished rather than filled in with a model.
