What Mustang's numbers say about electrical

Mustang is one of the fastest-growing Oklahoma City–metro suburbs tracked here: 24,571 people (2025 estimate), up 23.4% since 2020[2]. It covers 12.0 square miles (2,050 residents per square mile, the 5th densest), sits entirely in Canadian County, in ZIP code 73064[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.

The entire city sits in ZIP code 73064[5].

The tracked suburbs closest by are Yukon (9.0 mi N), Bethany (9.2 mi NE) and Newcastle (12.7 mi SE)[3].

26% of Mustang's housing was built in 1960–1979[1] — the 5th-lowest share of the 14 Oklahoma City–area suburbs we cover; nearby, Yukon (45%), Bethany (57%), and Newcastle (16%). That window includes roughly 1965–1973, when some homes got aluminum branch wiring[6].

38% of Mustang homes heat with electricity and 60% with gas[1] — the 4th-highest share of the 14 Oklahoma City–area suburbs we cover (Yukon (32%), Bethany (35%), and Newcastle (34%) nearby). Gas-heated homes often have more panel headroom, but only a load calculation tells.

Within 10 miles of central Mustang: 101 damaging-wind reports and 1 lightning-damage report in 2016–2025, the latest on Aug 11, 2025[4].

Ice is the other outage risk: 26 winter-storm, ice or hard-freeze days in 2016–2025[4] — worth knowing when sizing a generator or asking about whole-home surge protection.

3% of Mustang'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, Mustang has the 3rd-highest share of detached houses (88%)[1].
