ZIP 74066 vs ZIP 74010

This side-by-side compares ZIP 74066 (Sapulpa, OK) and ZIP 74010 (Bristow, OK) using the same Census ACS 5-Year table fields for both — no averages swapped in, no national proxies. ZIP 74066 has a population of 31,060 at 95 people per square mile, while ZIP 74010 has 10,501 at 12 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 74066 reports a median household income of $64,698 against $56,037 in ZIP 74010, with per-capita income of $33,019 vs $28,540. The share of adults holding a bachelor's degree or higher is 18.8% in 74066 and 13.9% in 74010. Poverty rate reads 12.7% vs 18.2%, and unemployment 3.3% vs 3.9% — 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 $182,300 in 74066 versus $188,500 in 74010, with median rent of $1,062 and $670 per month respectively. Homeownership rate is 73.1% vs 67.5%. 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.
