Reading the Oklahoma County Numbers
Local Content Opportunity Index
72.7/ 100
Lands 212 of 1,822 counties above 20,000 residents, 153 of the 400 markets here. Higher scores show more material and more careful readers. Method
LCOI, our content index, gives each county a score out of 100 on how much material a business can draw on and how many buyers read before they call. Seven categories whose buyers read first, local towns, growth, household income and permits make up the score. Oklahoma County scores 72.7, well above the middle of the pack.
The score leans on 12 places above 2,500 residents and on 45.1 research-heavy locations per 10,000 residents. Every tile below sets one number against the other counties we rank. We start from these numbers for content marketing services for Oklahoma County businesses.

The editor's read
What to Write About for Blog and Website Content in Oklahoma County
With 12 places above 2,500 residents, ahead of 94% of counties, Oklahoma County has more local ground to cover than most. A page about Oklahoma City does not answer what people ask in Edmond, and the county's 7 places above 10,000 each deserve their own treatment before the smaller ones do.
Beyond that, two details matter. Research-heavy businesses are dense here, 45.1 per 10,000 residents, above 96% of counties. Building is brisk, 80.1 permits per 10,000 residents, higher than in 89% of counties. Start with Oklahoma City, then Edmond and Midwest City, and work down the list.
Oklahoma County has 808,866 residents, 82nd among 3,143 counties. 24,665 employer locations, 304.9 for every 1,000 people, supply 394,978 jobs, and household income at the median is $65,979.
Sizing the plan
A Year of Writing Set Against Oklahoma County's Town List
Suppose a Oklahoma County business has three services to cover and wants a landing page for each in every one of the 12 places above 2,500 residents: that makes 36 pages. The table shows how long each plan takes to build it.
| Plan | Monthly fee | Landing pages each month | Months for the full grid | Assets written over a year |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Silver | $1,495 | 25 | 1.4 months | 48 (4.0 per place) |
| Gold | $2,495 | 50 | 0.7 months | 96 (8.0 per place) |
| Platinum | $3,495 | 100 | 0.4 months | 144 (12.0 per place) |
Three services per large place is an assumption. Plan volumes match the pricing page.
Three services is an example, not a quote; nothing here predicts leads or rankings. Written assets come on top.

Bars show locations per 10,000 residents as a multiple of the median county; 1.0x is the tick. Source: County Business Patterns, 2017 to 2022, which says nothing about web activity. How we count
Law offices lead the table: 916 locations, 3.9x the median county, down 2.4% since 2017. Their customers go looking for how a case unfolds from the first call, when it is time to hire a lawyer and what a first consultation involves. Physicians offices follow at 2.6x the typical county.
Residential remodelers grew fastest, up 41.7% since 2017 to 187 locations. Only law offices and physicians offices shrank. Small teams are most common among real estate agents and brokers: 418 of 453 locations have fewer than five employees. Across all seven categories it is 2,659 of 3,644.
