Jackson County, not La Motte
Jackson County context, not La Motte figures
These are Jackson County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as La Motte measurements.
- Establishments in Jackson County515
- Employment at those establishments, Jackson County4,717
- Covered employment, Jackson County5,869
- Average annual pay, Jackson County$45,236
- Average weekly wage, Jackson County$870
- Housing units permitted, Jackson County23
- Of those, single family, Jackson County23
- County product, 2024, Jackson County$906,681,000
- County product change over the prior year, Jackson County6.0 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Jackson County$59,573
Every figure in this section is published for Jackson County as a whole and is not a measurement of La Motte. 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.
