Tuscaloosa County, not Northport
Tuscaloosa County context, not Northport figures
These are Tuscaloosa County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Northport measurements.
- Establishments in Tuscaloosa County4,189
- Employment at those establishments, Tuscaloosa County84,004
- Covered employment, Tuscaloosa County99,288
- Average annual pay, Tuscaloosa County$59,535
- Average weekly wage, Tuscaloosa County$1,145
- Housing units permitted, Tuscaloosa County631
- Of those, single family, Tuscaloosa County510
- County product, 2024, Tuscaloosa County$14,447,493,000
- County product change over the prior year, Tuscaloosa County3.7 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Tuscaloosa County$57,258
Every figure in this section is published for Tuscaloosa County as a whole and is not a measurement of Northport. 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.

No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Tuscaloosa County as a whole and there is no place level equivalent. They appear in one clearly marked section as context and are never presented as measurements of Northport.
Is zoning published for Northport?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
