Houston County, not Perry
Houston County context, not Perry figures
These are Houston County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Perry measurements.
- Establishments in Houston County2,832
- Employment at those establishments, Houston County44,134
- Covered employment, Houston County65,782
- Average annual pay, Houston County$57,953
- Average weekly wage, Houston County$1,114
- Housing units permitted, Houston County1,526
- Of those, single family, Houston County1,147
- County product, 2024, Houston County$9,930,885,000
- County product change over the prior year, Houston County4.7 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Houston County$52,475
Every figure in this section is published for Houston County as a whole and is not a measurement of Perry. 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
Perry questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Perry, Georgia?
23,001, in 9,051 households. Perry city covers 28.54 square miles of land, which is 806 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is Perry in?
Perry lies in more than one. By area it is 93.5 percent in Houston County, 6.5 percent in Peach County. This page sits under Houston 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 Perry?
$76,909. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $225,300. Median gross rent is $1,132 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to Perry businesses?
15 7(a) approvals totalling $17.1 m, across 11 lenders, median approval $750,000, plus 12 504 approvals worth $13.1 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Perry, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Perry borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Perry. 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 Perry in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Perry appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 130110, 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 Perry figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Houston 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 Perry.
Is zoning published for Perry?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
