What the local data means for electrical in Edmond

Edmond counts 100,479 residents (2025 estimate), growing at a middle-of-the-pack 6.4% since 2020[2]. On the map that's 84.4 square miles holding 1,190 residents per square mile, the 6th densest of the suburbs here; it sits entirely in Oklahoma County, with ZIP codes 73034, 73007, 73013, 73003[3].

New construction arrives with 200-amp panels and room to grow; the older homes nearby are the ones where panels fill up, double-taps appear, and an EV charger triggers a load calculation.

4 ZIP codes cover Edmond — 73034 (39% of the city's land), 73007 (23% of the city's land), 73013 (13% of the city's land), 73003 (9% of the city's land)[5].

Nearest of the other suburbs we track: Guthrie (14.0 mi N), Midwest City (15.0 mi S) and Choctaw (15.3 mi SE)[3].

22% of Edmond's housing was built in 1960–1979[1] — the 4th-lowest share of the 14 Oklahoma City–area suburbs we cover; nearby, Guthrie (30%), Midwest City (33%), and Choctaw (39%). That window includes roughly 1965–1973, when some homes got aluminum branch wiring[6].

28% of Edmond homes heat with electricity and 70% with gas[1] — the lowest share of the 14 Oklahoma City–area suburbs we cover (Guthrie (33%), Midwest City (34%), and Choctaw (48%) nearby). Gas-heated homes often have more panel headroom, but only a load calculation tells.

Within 10 miles of central Edmond: 51 damaging-wind reports and 3 lightning-damage reports in 2016–2025, the latest on Sep 19, 2025[4].

Ice is the other outage risk: 29 winter-storm, ice or hard-freeze days in 2016–2025[4] — worth knowing when sizing a generator or asking about whole-home surge protection.

4% of Edmond's housing is from 2020 or later[1] — new enough that builder warranties still apply to many electrical defects.

Out of the 14 suburbs on this site, Edmond has the highest median home value ($351,400)[1] and the 3rd-most lightning-damage reports nearby (3)[4].
