McDonald County, not Southwest City
McDonald County context, not Southwest City figures
These are McDonald County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Southwest City measurements.
- Establishments in McDonald County312
- Employment at those establishments, McDonald County5,178
- Covered employment, McDonald County5,686
- Average annual pay, McDonald County$44,246
- Average weekly wage, McDonald County$851
- Housing units permitted, McDonald County21
- Of those, single family, McDonald County21
- County product, 2024, McDonald County$981,331,000
- County product change over the prior year, McDonald County-1.1 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, McDonald County$44,651
Every figure in this section is published for McDonald County as a whole and is not a measurement of Southwest City. 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.
- 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.
