- On October 5, 2026, ERCOT showed 511 home meters switched off (de-energized) in the ZIP codes most Oak Point homes use, against 2,939 switched on; that 14.8 percent is mostly vacant houses and apartments between occupants. (Source: https://www.ercot.com/misapp/GetReports.do?reportTypeId=203)

- Mailing cities on the 2,939 competitive home meters in 75068, Oak Point's main ZIP code: Oak Point 2,199, Little Elm 549, Lakewood Village 132, Frisco 59. A mailing city is not a city limit, so the service address, not the postal name, settles which utility serves a home. (Source: https://www.ercot.com/misapp/GetReports.do?reportTypeId=203)
- Coverage gap: 75068, home to 2,199 Oak Point-addressed meters, has 0.13 ERCOT meters for each household the Census counts there.
