Barbour County, not Clayton
Barbour County context, not Clayton figures
These are Barbour County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Clayton measurements.
- Establishments in Barbour County412
- Employment at those establishments, Barbour County6,301
- Covered employment, Barbour County7,711
- Average annual pay, Barbour County$45,590
- Average weekly wage, Barbour County$877
- Housing units permitted, Barbour County34
- Of those, single family, Barbour County14
- County product, 2024, Barbour County$985,771,000
- County product change over the prior year, Barbour County4.1 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Barbour County$46,923
Every figure in this section is published for Barbour County as a whole and is not a measurement of Clayton. It is here because a county backdrop is what a credit committee reads a place against, and it is labelled so that it can never be quoted as the place's own.

Coverage
What this page does not hold.
Every item below could be filled with a plausible figure. None of them is. On a page a lender may read, a number that cannot be traced is worse than an absence, so the absences are named.
- This place is not listed as a community in the FEMA Community Status Book, so no NFIP participation or CRS class is shown.
- Parcel level detail, zoning and flood zone at an address are resolved in the platform, not on this page.
SBA figures count approvals to borrowers whose address is in the place. They are not approvals for projects inside the place boundary: the tape records a borrower city and a project county, and those can differ.
