ZIP 74051 vs ZIP 74061

This side-by-side compares ZIP 74051 (Ochelata, OK) and ZIP 74061 (Ramona, OK) using the same Census ACS 5-Year table fields for both — no averages swapped in, no national proxies. ZIP 74051 has a population of 1,904 at 22 people per square mile, while ZIP 74061 has 2,095 at 9 per square mile. That difference in population size and density alone reshapes how every other metric should be interpreted — a higher-income ZIP with 1,200 residents behaves very differently from one with 45,000.

On income and education, ZIP 74051 reports a median household income of $67,841 against $58,929 in ZIP 74061, with per-capita income of $31,260 vs $35,888. The share of adults holding a bachelor's degree or higher is 18.3% in 74051 and 20.5% in 74061. Poverty rate reads 5.2% vs 15.8%, and unemployment 1.4% vs 7.7% — these four fields alone drive most of the difference in the scorecard grades you will see for each ZIP.

Housing separates these two ZIPs further: median home value sits at $178,300 in 74051 versus $225,700 in 74061, with median rent of $861 and $794 per month respectively. Homeownership rate is 80.7% vs 83.2%. When reading the comparison table below, focus on paired metrics rather than single winners — a ZIP with lower home values and lower income is not strictly "worse" if rent-to-income ratios and commute times land in the same zone. Every value is pulled from the exact same ACS table so the two columns are genuinely comparable.
