Crow Wing County, not Baxter
Crow Wing County context, not Baxter figures
These are Crow Wing County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Baxter measurements.
- Establishments in Crow Wing County2,283
- Employment at those establishments, Crow Wing County28,209
- Covered employment, Crow Wing County31,053
- Average annual pay, Crow Wing County$53,044
- Average weekly wage, Crow Wing County$1,020
- Housing units permitted, Crow Wing County431
- Of those, single family, Crow Wing County419
- County product, 2024, Crow Wing County$4,043,802,000
- County product change over the prior year, Crow Wing County5.5 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Crow Wing County$119,837
Every figure in this section is published for Crow Wing County as a whole and is not a measurement of Baxter. 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.

20 7(a) approvals totalling $13.2 m, across 13 lenders, median approval $352,800, plus 35 504 approvals worth $27.8 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Baxter, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Baxter borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Baxter. only 9 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 Baxter figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Crow Wing 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 Baxter.
Is zoning published for Baxter?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
