Los Angeles County, not Vernon
Los Angeles County context, not Vernon figures
These are Los Angeles County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Vernon measurements.
- Establishments in Los Angeles County304,988
- Employment at those establishments, Los Angeles County3,987,736
- Covered employment, Los Angeles County4,525,711
- Average annual pay, Los Angeles County$83,554
- Average weekly wage, Los Angeles County$1,607

- County product change over the prior year, Los Angeles County4.9 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Los Angeles County$103,070
Every figure in this section is published for Los Angeles County as a whole and is not a measurement of Vernon. 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.
Common questions
Vernon questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Vernon, California?
331, in 102 households. Vernon city covers 4.97 square miles of land, which is 67 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is Vernon in?
Los Angeles County, which holds 100.0 percent of the place by area. Source: US Census Bureau, cartographic boundary file, places, 2024 vintage.
What is the median household income in Vernon?
$70,667. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $916,700. Median gross rent is $1,439 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to Vernon businesses?
65 7(a) approvals totalling $70.8 m, across 29 lenders, median approval $350,000, plus 129 504 approvals worth $267.6 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Vernon, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Vernon borrowers get paid back?
Of the 11 loans that have reached a final outcome, 10 were paid in full and 1 charged off, a charge off rate of 9.1 percent. Loans still running are excluded because they have not yet succeeded or failed.
Are the county figures on this page Vernon figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Los Angeles 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 Vernon.
Is zoning published for Vernon?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
