Merced County, not Gustine
Merced County context, not Gustine figures
These are Merced County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Gustine measurements.

- Employment at those establishments, Merced County49,545
- Covered employment, Merced County84,952
- Average annual pay, Merced County$54,952
- Average weekly wage, Merced County$1,057

- County product, 2024, Merced County$13,282,268,000
- County product change over the prior year, Merced County9.2 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Merced County$53,930
Every figure in this section is published for Merced County as a whole and is not a measurement of Gustine. 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.
- 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.

Do SBA loans to Gustine borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Gustine. only 1 resolved loans, too few to publish a rate, and a percentage over that few outcomes would move several points on a single loan. The counts are shown instead.
Is Gustine in the National Flood Insurance Program?
It is listed but not shown as participating. Gustine appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 060447, with no Community Rating System class, so no CRS discount applies. Whether a specific parcel sits in a mapped special flood hazard area is an address level question the platform answers.
Are the county figures on this page Gustine figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Merced 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 Gustine.
Is zoning published for Gustine?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
