Harrison County, not Persia
Harrison County context, not Persia figures
These are Harrison County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Persia measurements.
- Establishments in Harrison County338
- Employment at those establishments, Harrison County2,968
- Covered employment, Harrison County3,990
- Average annual pay, Harrison County$50,182
- Average weekly wage, Harrison County$965
- Housing units permitted, Harrison County37
- Of those, single family, Harrison County32
- County product, 2024, Harrison County$674,638,000
- County product change over the prior year, Harrison County-3.8 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Harrison County$59,805
Every figure in this section is published for Harrison County as a whole and is not a measurement of Persia. 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.
- 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.

Is zoning published for Persia?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
