Vending machine locations in Oklahoma, by the numbers

Every state record in this series is unusual in some way. Oklahoma’s is unusual for being exactly average, which makes it the best single reference here.

Oklahoma contributes one placement and it is the most representative listing in the dataset. The Muskogee indoor playground reports 110 visitors a day — the exact median for its category — and agreed 40% of net, the exact median across the 81 placements that state a share.

Figures below come from the 87 signed listings open on PinPoint Vending’s marketplace on October 5, 2026. Traffic is venue-reported and unaudited; no listing reports sales.

It is also complete, which eighteen of the 87 placements are not: both a visitor count and a share are stated, and the venue type carries a published visit length. So Oklahoma is one of the single-listing states whose one row can actually be used.

How ordinary the Muskogee listing is

Average on every measure the dataset records, which is rarer than it sounds.

Set that against the other single-listing states and the contrast is clear. North Carolina’s lone venue holds the record’s lowest share on near-lowest traffic. Maryland’s is the busiest indoor playground in the dataset. Missouri’s reports no traffic at all. Louisiana’s is a premium venue half again above its category average. Oklahoma’s is the middle of the distribution.

Where it sits on captive time

Mid-table to low, and the reason is the category rather than the venue. Converting footfall into hours of exposure — visitors a day times a published average visit length, the method behind our ranking of vending locations — uses 1.5 hours for an indoor playground.

PlacementVisitors a dayVisit lengthVisitor-hours a day
Tyngsborough, Massachusetts (bowling)6802.7 habout 1,836
Slidell, Louisiana (family entertainment)2702.5 habout 675
Ocean City, Maryland (indoor playground)4101.5 habout 615
Muskogee, Oklahoma (indoor playground)1101.5 habout 165

About 165 visitor-hours puts Muskogee 31st of the 44 convertible listings. An indoor playground at the category median is a modest placement in absolute terms — which is itself a finding, because indoor playgrounds are the second most common venue type in the dataset with fifteen listings.

What a median listing is actually good for

Calibration, and that is not a small use. Most of this dataset’s interest lies in its outliers — the 1,836 visitor-hours at Tyngsborough, the three visitors a day in Flanders, the single 45% in Hattiesburg — and outliers are poor references.

QuestionOklahoma’s answer
What does an ordinary placement look like?110 visitors a day, 40% of net, standard tier, 16 months
What does an ordinary venue of the second most common type look like?Exactly Muskogee
What does it convert to on captive time?About 165 visitor-hours a day

So the practical reading for anyone comparing a placement anywhere is that Muskogee’s numbers are the baseline: a venue above 110 visitors a day is above the indoor playground median, and a share above 40% is above what most of the record agreed. What the revenue-share data shows across all 87 placements works through what the distribution does and does not support.

What is missing from Oklahoma’s record?

Three of the four categories that carry the dataset, and both metros. Oklahoma shows one indoor playground; bowling alleys, trampoline parks and family entertainment centres are absent, and those three supply 36 of the 87 national placements.

Oklahoma City, Tulsa, Norman, Broken Arrow and Edmond hold all three, and Muskogee is about 50 miles from Tulsa — close enough that a second Oklahoma listing would most likely share a service route with the first. Vending machine locations by state shows where every state stands.

Frequently asked questions

How many vending machine placements does Oklahoma have?

One in the record collected on October 5, 2026: a standard-tier indoor playground in Muskogee, signed August 20, 2026, reporting 40,000 visitors a year at 40% of net.

What makes the Muskogee listing notable?

How ordinary it is. Its 110 visitors a day is exactly the indoor playground median across the record, and its 40% of net is exactly the median share across the 81 placements stating one.

Can it be ranked on captive time?

Yes, which most single listings cannot. Indoor playgrounds carry a published 1.5-hour visit length, so Muskogee converts to about 165 visitor-hours a day.

Where does that place it?

Mid-table to low. About 165 visitor-hours puts it 31st of the 44 convertible listings, because indoor playground visits are short compared with bowling or family entertainment.

What is a median listing useful for?

Calibration. A state record that sits on the median of both measures is the cleanest available answer to the question of what an ordinary placement in this dataset actually looks like.

Next step

Use Muskogee as the dataset’s baseline rather than as a state summary. A placement reporting more than 110 visitors a day is above the median for the second most common venue type here, and a share above 40% is above what 81 placements settled at — which makes Oklahoma’s single row the most useful one-line reference in this series.
