One table lists all cities in Oklahoma currently credited with populations of 5,000 or more. beginning with Oklahoma City in No. 1 spot, these cities are ranked numerically according to size. Cities in the over-5,000 class for the first time are Del City, Warr Acres, Broken Arrow, Pyror, Tahlequah and Guymon. These Figures are expected to change when final results are tabulated. Muskogee, long one of Oklahoma's top cities in size, showed a slight gain for the 10-year period but dropped from third to sixth palce among the top 10, being edged out by Lawton, Norman and Enid. Midwest City is No. 7, followed by Bartlesville, Ponca City and Shawnee. At least one suburbam Oklahoma City of appreciable size was not even listed in the 1950 census.
