Sharp County, not Highland
Sharp County context, not Highland figures
These are Sharp County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Highland measurements.
- Establishments in Sharp County342
- Employment at those establishments, Sharp County2,833
- Covered employment, Sharp County3,954
- Average annual pay, Sharp County$38,491
- Average weekly wage, Sharp County$740
- Housing units permitted, Sharp County26
- Of those, single family, Sharp County26
- County product, 2024, Sharp County$579,835,000
- County product change over the prior year, Sharp County15.3 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Sharp County$43,524
Every figure in this section is published for Sharp County as a whole and is not a measurement of Highland. 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.
- 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.
