Wilkinson County, not Allentown
Wilkinson County context, not Allentown figures
These are Wilkinson County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Allentown measurements.
- Establishments in Wilkinson County143
- Employment at those establishments, Wilkinson County2,543
- Covered employment, Wilkinson County2,836
- Average annual pay, Wilkinson County$58,230
- Average weekly wage, Wilkinson County$1,120
- Housing units permitted, Wilkinson County0
- Of those, single family, Wilkinson County0
- County product, 2024, Wilkinson County$603,577,000
- County product change over the prior year, Wilkinson County-13.7 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Wilkinson County$42,058
Every figure in this section is published for Wilkinson County as a whole and is not a measurement of Allentown. 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 approvals are recorded to a borrower address in this place in either FOIA release.
- No median owner-occupied home value is published for this place.
- No median gross rent is published for this place.
- 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
Allentown questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Allentown, Georgia?
341, in 176 households. Allentown city covers 4.85 square miles of land, which is 70 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is Allentown in?
Allentown lies in more than one. By area it is 34.4 percent in Wilkinson County, 32.1 percent in Bleckley County, 21.4 percent in Twiggs County, 12.1 percent in Laurens County. This page sits under Wilkinson County because that county holds the largest share. The split is measured from the Census boundary of the place against the county boundaries.
What is the median household income in Allentown?
$46,538. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
Is Allentown in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Allentown appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 130605, 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 Allentown figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Wilkinson 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 Allentown.
Is zoning published for Allentown?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
