Henry County, not McDonough
Henry County context, not McDonough figures
These are Henry County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as McDonough measurements.
- Establishments in Henry County4,528
- Employment at those establishments, Henry County65,403
- Covered employment, Henry County76,873
- Average annual pay, Henry County$52,361
- Average weekly wage, Henry County$1,007
- Housing units permitted, Henry County1,887
- Of those, single family, Henry County1,887
- County product, 2024, Henry County$11,851,338,000
- County product change over the prior year, Henry County8.5 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Henry County$50,269
Every figure in this section is published for Henry County as a whole and is not a measurement of McDonough. 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
McDonough questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in McDonough, Georgia?
30,947, in 10,886 households. McDonough city covers 13.38 square miles of land, which is 2,313 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.

Henry County, which holds 100.0 percent of the place by area. Source: US Census Bureau, cartographic boundary file, places, 2024 vintage.

$75,343. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $314,600. Median gross rent is $1,792 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to McDonough businesses?
164 7(a) approvals totalling $113.3 m, across 63 lenders, median approval $278,700, plus 37 504 approvals worth $38.8 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in McDonough, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to McDonough borrowers get paid back?
Of the 24 loans that have reached a final outcome, 21 were paid in full and 3 charged off, a charge off rate of 12.5 percent. Loans still running are excluded because they have not yet succeeded or failed.
Is McDonough in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. McDonough appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 130342, 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 McDonough figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Henry 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 McDonough.
Is zoning published for McDonough?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
