Newton County, not Union
Newton County context, not Union figures
These are Newton County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Union measurements.
- Establishments in Newton County315
- Employment at those establishments, Newton County4,053
- Covered employment, Newton County5,127
- Average annual pay, Newton County$41,490
- Average weekly wage, Newton County$798

- County product, 2024, Newton County$699,388,000
- County product change over the prior year, Newton County7.2 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Newton County$50,586
Every figure in this section is published for Newton County as a whole and is not a measurement of Union. 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.
Common questions
Union questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Union, Mississippi?
2,090, in 744 households. Union town covers 3.43 square miles of land, which is 610 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is Union in?
Union lies in more than one. By area it is 74.4 percent in Newton County, 25.6 percent in Neshoba County. This page sits under Newton County because that county holds the largest share. The split is measured from the Census boundary of the place against the county boundaries.
What is the median household income in Union?
$44,643. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $138,400. Median gross rent is $715 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to Union businesses?
11 7(a) approvals totalling $17.4 m, across 5 lenders, median approval $1,200,000. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Union, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Union borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Union. only 1 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 Union figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Newton 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 Union.
Is zoning published for Union?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
