This is a small place, and the figures below carry wide margins.
The American Community Survey reaches Wheeler through a sample, not a count, and in a place this size that sample is thin. The population estimate here is 130 with a margin of error of plus or minus 73, which is 56.2 percent of the estimate itself. Every figure whose margin reaches 20 percent is printed with that margin beside it, so you can see the width of each one rather than having to assume it.
Nothing has been removed or adjusted. These are the published federal estimates, shown with the uncertainty the Census publishes alongside them.

Jasper County, not Wheeler
Jasper County context, not Wheeler figures
These are Jasper County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Wheeler measurements.
- Establishments in Jasper County226
- Employment at those establishments, Jasper County1,494
- Covered employment, Jasper County2,186
- Average annual pay, Jasper County$47,286
- Average weekly wage, Jasper County$909
- Housing units permitted, Jasper County2
- Of those, single family, Jasper County2
- County product, 2024, Jasper County$645,645,000
- County product change over the prior year, Jasper County2.3 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Jasper County$45,000
Every figure in this section is published for Jasper County as a whole and is not a measurement of Wheeler. 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 median owner-occupied home value is published for this place.
- No median gross rent is published for this place.
- 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.

How much SBA lending goes to Wheeler businesses?

Do SBA loans to Wheeler borrowers get paid back?

Is Wheeler in the National Flood Insurance Program?
It is listed but not shown as participating. Wheeler appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 170304, 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 Wheeler figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Jasper 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 Wheeler.
Is zoning published for Wheeler?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
