Dallas County, not Granger
Dallas County context, not Granger figures
These are Dallas County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Granger measurements.
- Establishments in Dallas County2,521
- Employment at those establishments, Dallas County46,640
- Covered employment, Dallas County55,258
- Average annual pay, Dallas County$76,316
- Average weekly wage, Dallas County$1,468
- Housing units permitted, Dallas County1,513
- Of those, single family, Dallas County883
- County product, 2024, Dallas County$11,106,538,000
- County product change over the prior year, Dallas County7.4 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Dallas County$79,519
Every figure in this section is published for Dallas County as a whole and is not a measurement of Granger. 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.
- This place is not listed as a community in the FEMA Community Status Book, so no NFIP participation or CRS class is shown.
- 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.

What county is Granger in?

How much SBA lending goes to Granger businesses?
2 7(a) approvals totalling $100,000, across 2 lenders, median approval $50,000, plus 1 504 approvals worth $875,000. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Granger, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Granger borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Granger. only 1 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.
Are the county figures on this page Granger figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Dallas 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 Granger.
Is zoning published for Granger?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
