Sarasota County, not Plantation
Sarasota County context, not Plantation figures
These are Sarasota County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Plantation measurements.
- Establishments in Sarasota County15,989
- Employment at those establishments, Sarasota County162,310
- Covered employment, Sarasota County190,078
- Average annual pay, Sarasota County$65,133
- Average weekly wage, Sarasota County$1,253
- Housing units permitted, Sarasota County7,466
- Of those, single family, Sarasota County5,259
- County product, 2024, Sarasota County$35,891,092,000
- County product change over the prior year, Sarasota County7.1 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Sarasota County$192,550
Every figure in this section is published for Sarasota County as a whole and is not a measurement of Plantation. 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.
- No SBA figures are shown. withheld: Florida has 2 places named Plantation and the tape records none of their loans in Sarasota County.
- 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.

Is Plantation in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Plantation appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 120054, carrying Community Rating System class 7, 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 Plantation figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Sarasota 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 Plantation.
Is zoning published for Plantation?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
