This is a small place, and the figures below carry wide margins.
The American Community Survey reaches Lawtey through a sample, not a count, and in a place this size that sample is thin. The population estimate here is 897 with a margin of error of plus or minus 461, which is 51.4 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.

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

- Employment at those establishments, Bradford County4,826
- Covered employment, Bradford County6,314
- Average annual pay, Bradford County$48,898
- Average weekly wage, Bradford County$940

- County product, 2024, Bradford County$975,743,000
- County product change over the prior year, Bradford County6.6 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Bradford County$43,634
Every figure in this section is published for Bradford County as a whole and is not a measurement of Lawtey. 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 Lawtey borrowers get paid back?

Is Lawtey in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Lawtey appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 120628, 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 Lawtey figures?
No, and they are labelled so.

They appear in one clearly marked section as context and are never presented as measurements of Lawtey.
Is zoning published for Lawtey?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
