Oklahoma City / Bristow
Bristow has 4,272 residents (give or take 40) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B01003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B01003?g=160XX00US4008900, checked 2026-10-19), about 1,235 people per square mile.
Bristow is about 68 miles from the Census center point for Oklahoma City in a straight line and covers 3.458 square miles of land (Census 2024 Gazetteer internal points and land area, https://www2.census.gov/geo/docs/maps-data/data/gazetteer/2024_Gazetteer/, checked 2026-10-19).
Of the 1,677 occupied homes in Bristow, 56% heat with natural gas, 0% with heating oil, 41% with electricity and 1% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US4008900, checked 2026-10-19).
Gas heats 56% of Bristow against electricity at 41%, so most quotes here are a partial-home system that carries the shoulder seasons and the summer while the gas furnace handles the coldest nights, or a whole-home system when the house is ready for it.
Bristow has about the Creek County oil share of 0% and 1 points less electric heat than the county's 42% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US40037, checked 2026-10-19).
Bristow has 1,922 housing units, 12% built before 1940 and 56% before 1980, with 17% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US4008900, checked 2026-10-19).
Bristow has 5 points more pre-1940 homes than Creek County as a whole (7%) and 14 points fewer homes built after 2000 than the county's 31% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=050XX00US40037, checked 2026-10-19). An older stock means more insulation upgrades before the heat pump goes in.
The median Bristow home was built in 1976 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US4008900, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 4.6 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US4008900, checked 2026-10-19).
69% of Bristow homes are single-family detached, 13% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 7% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US4008900, checked 2026-10-19).
56% of Bristow homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US4008900, checked 2026-10-19), so beside the 69% detached houses there is a real share of jobs where the landlord, not the resident, signs the quote.
56% of Bristow homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US4008900, checked 2026-10-19), so the market splits between resident-led jobs where the occupant picks the system and landlord-led jobs where they do not, and the rebate paperwork differs.
No electric utility is on file for Bristow on this door yet, so this page does not name one; the name on the bill decides which rebate path applies.
Power Forward with PSO residential rebates (ASHP), run by PSO (Public Service Company of Oklahoma), is a live program for Oklahoma addresses and covers qualifying equipment at $500 per system (registry row 51 verified 2026-10-14, https://powerforwardwithpso.com/programs/heat-pump/, checked 2026-10-16); confirm eligibility for the Bristow address before counting it. With 41% of Bristow homes already on electric heat and 57% on gas, oil or propane, the row that applies depends on the name on the electric bill and the fuel coming out.
Median household income in Bristow is $38,906 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=160XX00US4008900, checked 2026-10-19); many state and utility heat pump rebate programs set higher incentive tiers for income-qualifying households, so the household income on the application, not the town median, decides which level applies.
Heating design temperature: 17F.

That 17F figure is the Creek County cold-day number a Bristow heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 17F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask whether the quote is whole-home or partial-home, because with 56% of Bristow on gas and 41% already electric the two paths carry different rebate figures and different sizing.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Bristow home has 4.6 rooms and was built around 1976, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
