This is a small place, and the figures below carry wide margins.
The American Community Survey reaches Red River through a sample, not a count, and in a place this size that sample is thin. The population estimate here is 450 with a margin of error of plus or minus 247, which is 54.9 percent of the estimate itself. Every figure whose margin reaches 20 percent is printed with that margin beside it, so you can see the width of each one rather than having to assume it.
Nothing has been removed or adjusted. These are the published federal estimates, shown with the uncertainty the Census publishes alongside them.

Taos County, not Red River
Taos County context, not Red River figures
These are Taos County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Red River measurements.
- Establishments in Taos County1,083
- Employment at those establishments, Taos County9,460
- Covered employment, Taos County11,075
- Average annual pay, Taos County$45,377
- Average weekly wage, Taos County$873
- Housing units permitted, Taos County127
- Of those, single family, Taos County125
- County product, 2024, Taos County$1,520,802,000
- County product change over the prior year, Taos County6.7 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Taos County$90,485
Every figure in this section is published for Taos County as a whole and is not a measurement of Red River. 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.

Do SBA loans to Red River borrowers get paid back?

Are the county figures on this page Red River figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Taos 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 Red River.
Is zoning published for Red River?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
