Boulder County, not Lyons
Boulder County context, not Lyons figures
These are Boulder County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Lyons measurements.
- Establishments in Boulder County12,990
- Employment at those establishments, Boulder County159,619
- Covered employment, Boulder County193,920
- Average annual pay, Boulder County$96,397
- Average weekly wage, Boulder County$1,854
- Housing units permitted, Boulder County1,680
- Of those, single family, Boulder County441
- County product, 2024, Boulder County$39,310,907,000
- County product change over the prior year, Boulder County4.3 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Boulder County$115,300
Every figure in this section is published for Boulder County as a whole and is not a measurement of Lyons. 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.
