Across the 60 places in Oklahoma that we cover, the median is 5.6% and the average 5.3%; the figure runs from 1.2% (Noble) to 10.1% (Blanchard). That is a spread of 8.6 times between the two ends. The state figure is 5.0%; 33 of the 60 places are above it and 27 at or below.
The first five are Noble, Clinton, Jenks, Newcastle, Miami. A high or low position is not good or bad on its own: unemployment from the ACS is a survey estimate with a margin of error, and small places can swing widely. Use the Compare tab on each city page to see how two places differ across income, rent, commute and education, and check the county page for the local job market.
