Trimble County, not Bedford
Trimble County context, not Bedford figures
These are Trimble County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Bedford measurements.
- Establishments in Trimble County86
- Employment at those establishments, Trimble County846
- Covered employment, Trimble County1,072
- Average annual pay, Trimble County$60,405
- Average weekly wage, Trimble County$1,162
- County product, 2024, Trimble County$735,688,000
- County product change over the prior year, Trimble County12.5 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Trimble County$76,477
Every figure in this section is published for Trimble County as a whole and is not a measurement of Bedford. 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.
