Broken Arrow, OK's current ACS housing baseline includes 46,597 total housing units, 44,384 occupied units, and 2,213 vacant units. For borrower planning, those counts may help a borrower establish the scale of the measured housing base before comparing tenure, rent, current listings, property condition, and financing. The figures describe stock across the survey period; they do not say that 2,213 homes were listed for sale or available to rent at one moment. Reading 46,597 total units with 44,384 occupied and 2,213 vacant units keeps the release internally grounded while leaving live availability to current listing and property evidence.

A grounded Broken Arrow, OK comparison starts with current listings and lease offers, then uses the ACS evidence to check whether the sample is being interpreted in the context of 46,597 total units, a vacancy share of 4.7%, and an owner share of 72.0%. For the rental budget, replace the $1,320 median with the actual lease, utilities, deposits, and expected changes. On the ownership side, keep the 72.0% share as market context while adding the selected property's price, taxes, insurance, maintenance, association obligations, loan disclosures, and cash-to-close. For the decision at hand, the resulting worksheet will not turn 28.0% or 72.0% into a recommendation, but it will keep the two paths comparable and make the remaining assumptions visible before a decision.
