Fulton County, not Palmetto
Fulton County context, not Palmetto figures
These are Fulton County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Palmetto measurements.
- Establishments in Fulton County40,949
- Employment at those establishments, Fulton County928,068
- Covered employment, Fulton County948,157
- Average annual pay, Fulton County$100,817
- Average weekly wage, Fulton County$1,939
- Housing units permitted, Fulton County11,577
- Of those, single family, Fulton County2,937
- County product, 2024, Fulton County$243,562,683,000
- County product change over the prior year, Fulton County5.9 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Fulton County$98,836
Every figure in this section is published for Fulton County as a whole and is not a measurement of Palmetto. 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
Palmetto questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Palmetto, Georgia?
4,797, in 1,701 households. Palmetto city covers 11.84 square miles of land, which is 405 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is Palmetto in?
Palmetto lies in more than one. By area it is 92.3 percent in Fulton County, 7.7 percent in Coweta County. This page sits under Fulton 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 Palmetto?
$80,982. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $228,800. Median gross rent is $1,154 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to Palmetto businesses?
8 7(a) approvals totalling $8.7 m, across 8 lenders, median approval $989,000, plus 3 504 approvals worth $970,000. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Palmetto, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Palmetto borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Palmetto. only 4 resolved loans, too few to publish a rate, and a percentage over that few outcomes would move several points on a single loan. The counts are shown instead.
Is Palmetto in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Palmetto appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 130239, 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 Palmetto figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Fulton 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 Palmetto.
Is zoning published for Palmetto?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
