This is a small place, and the figures below carry wide margins.

The American Community Survey reaches Bethesda through a sample, not a count, and in a place this size that sample is thin. The population estimate here is 79 with a margin of error of plus or minus 63, which is 79.7 percent of the estimate itself. Every figure whose margin reaches 20 percent is printed with that margin beside it, so you can see the width of each one rather than having to assume it.

Nothing has been removed or adjusted. These are the published federal estimates, shown with the uncertainty the Census publishes alongside them.

Independence County, not Bethesda

Independence County context, not Bethesda figures

These are Independence County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Bethesda measurements.

  • Establishments in Independence County810
  • Employment at those establishments, Independence County16,206
  • Covered employment, Independence County17,612
  • Average annual pay, Independence County$48,642
  • Average weekly wage, Independence County$935
  • Housing units permitted, Independence County32
  • Of those, single family, Independence County6
  • County product, 2024, Independence County$2,636,340,000
  • County product change over the prior year, Independence County6.0 percent
  • Average income of an arriving household, Independence County$57,012

Every figure in this section is published for Independence County as a whole and is not a measurement of Bethesda. 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.

  • No SBA approvals are recorded to a borrower address in this place in either FOIA release.
  • This place is not listed as a community in the FEMA Community Status Book, so no NFIP participation or CRS class is shown.
  • No median owner-occupied home value is published for this place.
  • No median gross rent is published for this place.
  • 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.

$77,946. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.

Are the county figures on this page Bethesda figures?

No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Independence 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 Bethesda.

Is zoning published for Bethesda?

Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
