Rogers County is a county of Oklahoma with 98,610 residents. Its economy produced $4,881 million in 2024 (ranked #6 of 77 counties) and had 30,500 jobs with an average annual pay of $58,107 (#5 for pay). The unemployment rate was 3.6% in 2026M09. It is part of the Tulsa, OK metropolitan area (outlying county).
Rogers County produced about $4,881 million of goods and services in 2024, which is 1.9% of the combined output of the 77 counties of Oklahoma that BEA reports (about 2.4% of the state's population lives here), and ranks it 6th of 77 on that measure. Per resident that is $49,496, 24% below the state average; the average for all counties of the state taken together is $65,455. In current dollars output grew 6.0% from 2023 to 2024, before adjusting for inflation. The gap between its output rank (6th) and its output-per-resident rank (43rd) shows that population is large relative to the value of what is produced here.
BLS counts 30,500 jobs located in Rogers County on average in 2024, spread over 2,210 employer sites (about 14 jobs per site). That is 0.31 jobs for every resident, close to the 0.31 of the typical county in Oklahoma, which tells you whether the county is a place people mostly commute to for work or a place they commute from. The average annual pay per job was $58,107, about the same as the average of all counties in the state ($58,107 against $58,160). Average pay is total wages divided by jobs, so it is pulled up by high earners and counts part-time jobs as whole jobs; it is not the pay of a typical worker. The number of jobs rose 1.1% from 2023 to 2024.
The three largest private industries are manufacturing (23.7% of private jobs, $75,240 a year on average), health care and social assistance (12.7% of private jobs, $45,647 a year on average), retail trade (12.3% of private jobs, $35,134 a year on average). Together they hold 48.7% of private-sector jobs. Among industries with at least 3% of jobs, the best paying is manufacturing at $75,240 a year, followed by wholesale trade ($74,334). The county is specialised in several industries: manufacturing (2.2 times the US share, 5,480 jobs); transportation and warehousing (1.6 times the US share, 2,117 jobs). A location quotient above 1 means an industry employs a larger share of workers here than in the whole country, so these are the industries where local employers compete hardest for skills. Several of the biggest employers pay well below the county average: retail trade ($35,134), accommodation and food services ($19,838). Jobs there are plentiful but the pay is lower than the headline average suggests.
In 2026M09 the unemployment rate in Rogers County was 3.6%, 7% below the average of the state's counties (3.6% against 3.9%). The labour force (people working or looking for work) numbered 52,090. Over the last 12 months it ranged from 3.1% (2025M09) to 4.2% (2026M07); the latest month is preliminary and BLS revises it. These county rates are not seasonally adjusted, so compare the same month across years.
The median household income was $80,067 (ACS 2020–2024), 23% above the state median ($80,067 against $65,039). The guide covers 2 cities with this as the main county: Claremore, Catoosa. Open any of them for rent, home values, commuting and climate.
