Doña Ana County, not White Sands
Doña Ana County context, not White Sands figures
These are Doña Ana County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as White Sands measurements.

- Employment at those establishments, Doña Ana County55,834
- Covered employment, Doña Ana County79,409
- Average annual pay, Doña Ana County$49,974
- Average weekly wage, Doña Ana County$961
- Housing units permitted, Doña Ana County964

- Average income of an arriving household, Doña Ana County$59,907
Every figure in this section is published for Doña Ana County as a whole and is not a measurement of White Sands. 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.
- No median owner-occupied home value is published for this place.
- 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.
