Taylor County, not Gravity
Taylor County context, not Gravity figures
These are Taylor County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Gravity measurements.
- Establishments in Taylor County140
- Employment at those establishments, Taylor County1,543
- Covered employment, Taylor County2,030
- Average annual pay, Taylor County$51,564
- Average weekly wage, Taylor County$992
- Housing units permitted, Taylor County5

- County product, 2024, Taylor County$375,852,000
- County product change over the prior year, Taylor County2.4 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Taylor County$45,162
Every figure in this section is published for Taylor County as a whole and is not a measurement of Gravity. 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.
