Decatur County, not Lake Santee

Decatur County context, not Lake Santee figures

These are Decatur County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Lake Santee measurements.

  • Establishments in Decatur County652
  • Employment at those establishments, Decatur County12,035
  • Covered employment, Decatur County13,840
  • Average annual pay, Decatur County$58,092
  • Average weekly wage, Decatur County$1,117
  • Housing units permitted, Decatur County66
  • Of those, single family, Decatur County60
  • County product, 2024, Decatur County$1,895,295,000
  • County product change over the prior year, Decatur County1.6 percent
  • Average income of an arriving household, Decatur County$49,113

Every figure in this section is published for Decatur County as a whole and is not a measurement of Lake Santee. 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.
  • This place is not listed as a community in the FEMA Community Status Book, so no NFIP participation or CRS class is shown.
  • 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.

Common questions

Lake Santee questions, answered from the record.

What county is Lake Santee in?

Lake Santee lies in more than one. By area it is 87.8 percent in Decatur County, 12.2 percent in Franklin County. This page sits under Decatur County because that county holds the largest share. The split is measured from the Census boundary of the place against the county boundaries.

$158,140. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $245,500. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.

Are the county figures on this page Lake Santee figures?

No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Decatur 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 Lake Santee.

Is zoning published for Lake Santee?

Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
