Broward County, not Tamarac
Broward County context, not Tamarac figures
These are Broward County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Tamarac measurements.
- Establishments in Broward County68,191
- Employment at those establishments, Broward County780,632
- Covered employment, Broward County864,520
- Average annual pay, Broward County$71,492
- Average weekly wage, Broward County$1,375
- Housing units permitted, Broward County1,655
- Of those, single family, Broward County697
- County product, 2024, Broward County$173,651,328,000
- County product change over the prior year, Broward County5.5 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Broward County$115,504
Every figure in this section is published for Broward County as a whole and is not a measurement of Tamarac. 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.
Common questions
Tamarac questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Tamarac, Florida?
73,019, in 31,422 households. Tamarac city covers 11.59 square miles of land, which is 6,298 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is Tamarac in?
Broward 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 Tamarac?
$61,718. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $288,600. Median gross rent is $1,895 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to Tamarac businesses?
66 7(a) approvals totalling $21.4 m, across 28 lenders, median approval $150,000, plus 9 504 approvals worth $12.7 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Tamarac, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Tamarac borrowers get paid back?
Of the 15 loans that have reached a final outcome, 10 were paid in full and 5 charged off, a charge off rate of 33.3 percent. Loans still running are excluded because they have not yet succeeded or failed.
Is Tamarac in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Tamarac appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 120058, carrying Community Rating System class 6, which is a premium discount for exceeding the programme minimum. 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 Tamarac figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Broward 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 Tamarac.
Is zoning published for Tamarac?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
