Richmond County, not Blythe
Richmond County context, not Blythe figures
These are Richmond County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Blythe measurements.
- Establishments in Richmond County4,279
- Employment at those establishments, Richmond County89,717
- Covered employment, Richmond County104,210
- Average annual pay, Richmond County$58,481
- Average weekly wage, Richmond County$1,125
- Housing units permitted, Richmond County558
- Of those, single family, Richmond County558
- County product, 2024, Richmond County$16,816,550,000
- County product change over the prior year, Richmond County4.8 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Richmond County$46,618
Every figure in this section is published for Richmond County as a whole and is not a measurement of Blythe. 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.
- 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
Blythe questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Blythe, Georgia?
806, in 290 households. Blythe city covers 2.85 square miles of land, which is 283 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is Blythe in?
Blythe lies in more than one. By area it is 89.9 percent in Richmond County, 10.1 percent in Burke County. This page sits under Richmond 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 Blythe?
$48,750. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $135,800. Median gross rent is $925 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
Is Blythe in the National Flood Insurance Program?
It is listed but not shown as participating. Blythe appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 130383, 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 Blythe figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Richmond 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 Blythe.
Is zoning published for Blythe?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
