Cobb County, not Smyrna
Cobb County context, not Smyrna figures
These are Cobb County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Smyrna measurements.
- Establishments in Cobb County22,148
- Employment at those establishments, Cobb County376,117
- Covered employment, Cobb County384,275
- Average annual pay, Cobb County$77,531
- Average weekly wage, Cobb County$1,491
- Housing units permitted, Cobb County1,604
- Of those, single family, Cobb County1,143
- County product, 2024, Cobb County$81,868,771,000
- County product change over the prior year, Cobb County3.7 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Cobb County$75,190
Every figure in this section is published for Cobb County as a whole and is not a measurement of Smyrna. 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
Smyrna questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Smyrna, Georgia?
56,633, in 24,809 households. Smyrna city covers 16.17 square miles of land, which is 3,502 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is Smyrna in?
Cobb 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 Smyrna?
$100,061. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $449,500. Median gross rent is $1,739 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to Smyrna businesses?
148 7(a) approvals totalling $111.9 m, across 56 lenders, median approval $300,000, plus 33 504 approvals worth $30.3 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Smyrna, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Smyrna borrowers get paid back?
Of the 23 loans that have reached a final outcome, 22 were paid in full and 1 charged off, a charge off rate of 4.3 percent. Loans still running are excluded because they have not yet succeeded or failed.
Is Smyrna in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Smyrna appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 130057, 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 Smyrna figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Cobb 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 Smyrna.
Is zoning published for Smyrna?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
