Martin County, not Stuart
Martin County context, not Stuart figures
These are Martin County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Stuart measurements.
- Establishments in Martin County6,400
- Employment at those establishments, Martin County67,697
- Covered employment, Martin County76,510
- Average annual pay, Martin County$59,415
- Average weekly wage, Martin County$1,143
- Housing units permitted, Martin County646
- Of those, single family, Martin County524
- County product, 2024, Martin County$12,307,360,000
- County product change over the prior year, Martin County2.7 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Martin County$209,602
Every figure in this section is published for Martin County as a whole and is not a measurement of Stuart. 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
Stuart questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Stuart, Florida?
18,520, in 8,060 households. Stuart city covers 7.12 square miles of land, which is 2,602 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is Stuart in?
Martin 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 Stuart?
$60,225. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $329,400. Median gross rent is $1,586 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to Stuart businesses?
198 7(a) approvals totalling $131.7 m, across 51 lenders, median approval $320,000, plus 45 504 approvals worth $39.5 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Stuart, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Stuart borrowers get paid back?
Of the 32 loans that have reached a final outcome, 30 were paid in full and 2 charged off, a charge off rate of 6.3 percent. Loans still running are excluded because they have not yet succeeded or failed.
Is Stuart in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Stuart appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 120165, 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 Stuart figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Martin 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 Stuart.
Is zoning published for Stuart?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
