📝 How we sourced this

Population, income, and housing-cost figures come from the U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey 5-year estimates (B-series tables). Crime data uses FBI UCR; climate uses NOAA Climate Normals; school counts come from NCES Common Core of Data; permits use the Census Building Permits Survey (BPS). See our methodology page for the full ETL pipeline and OMB / FIPS join keys.

Data Snapshot: Haskell, OK

Census ACS 2023 estimates count 1,645 residents in Haskell, a small town within Oklahoma. The typical household in Haskell brings in $34,276 a year, in the lower quartile of U.S. cities for household income, with a poverty rate of 18.5%. Haskell's housing stock carries a median value of $115,500, and the median resident age is 51.5 years. Educational attainment runs 14.6% of adults with a bachelor's degree or higher. Separately, 37.0% of working-age residents are in the labor force.

Housing supply pressure shows in Census Building Permit Survey data: 18 residential units were authorized in 2024 (Rapid Growth), up 29% from five years earlier. Crime here tracks close to the national norm: FBI UCR figures show 1990.6 crimes per 100,000 residents, near the national average (reporting is voluntary across agencies, so treat this as reporting activity rather than a definitive danger score).

Living costs in Oklahoma run below the national norm: the state registers 87.8 on a 100-equals-national-average index (Well Below Average) per BEA Regional Price Parities 2024. HUD Fair Market Rent for a typical two-bedroom in this state is $1,217 per month. Monthly utility costs average around $205 across Oklahoma, per EIA 2023 residential energy estimates. Commute times here average 27.7 minutes, with 83.6% driving alone and 4.5% working from home, per Census ACS commuting data. On FEMA's National Risk Index, this area rates 73.3 out of 100 for natural-hazard exposure (High).

How does Haskell compare to other US cities?

Where Haskell sits among all US cities (population 1,000+) on each measure, computed live from Census and FBI data.

Household income 4% higher than other cities
Home value 15% pricier than other cities
Median rent 37% pricier than other cities
Safety 32% safer than other cities

"Safer than" reflects total crime rate from FBI UCR; the others use Census ACS estimates.

National percentiles can mask local variation. Looking only at Oklahoma, Haskell ranks #126 of 203 Oklahoma cities by lowest crime rate - a narrower, more locally useful cut than the national comparison above.

How we calculate these percentiles & ranks

Each percentile compares Haskell against every qualifying US city; each in-state rank narrows that to Oklahoma only. Full formula and direction notes: methodology.

Oklahoma-relative analysis

Median Gross Rent places Haskell toward the top of Oklahoma's cities

Among the 671 Oklahoma cities PlainCities tracks with reported median gross rent data, Haskell ranks #53 - the 84th percentile within the state. This is a different, narrower cut than the nationwide percentiles above: it compares Haskell only against its own state's cities, not the full US field.

Income distribution context

Household income distribution - Haskell, OK Haskell, OK's reported median household income shown against the U.S. national quintile-share pattern (not Haskell, OK-specific quintile data).
