Jefferson County, OK

Waurika, Oklahoma has about 2,004 people. That count is a 2020–2024 Census average, not a headcount from one day.

A typical home is worth about $64,800.

HUD's fair-market rent for a 2-bedroom in Jefferson County is $916 a month. That is the county number, not an apartment listing in Waurika. It runs from October 2026 through September 2027.

Oklahoma's prices sit at 87.8 when the U.S. average is 100. This place is not in a metro area with its own index, so this is the state number from BEA for 2024.

Oklahoma taxes wages. A typical combined sales tax is 9.1% as of January 1, 2026. That mix is statewide, not Waurika's exact store tax.

In July 2026, a typical Oklahoma home paid 14.35¢ per kilowatt-hour. That is a state average from EIA, not Waurika's bill.

EIA did not publish a 2025 all-grades gas price for Oklahoma in the table we use.
