Start with the dated local finding: Oklahoma City, OK's current ACS housing baseline includes 306,366 total housing units, 280,065 occupied units, and 26,301 vacant units. In practical terms, those counts can 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 26,301 homes were listed for sale or available to rent at one moment. For the decision at hand, reading 306,366 total units with 280,065 occupied and 26,301 vacant units keeps the release internally grounded while leaving live availability to current listing and property evidence.

Oklahoma City, OK's ACS median gross rent is $1,130, while renter-occupied units account for 41.4% of occupied housing and owner-occupied units account for 58.6%.
