Beaufort County, not Washington
Beaufort County context, not Washington figures
These are Beaufort County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Washington measurements.
- Establishments in Beaufort County1,138
- Employment at those establishments, Beaufort County13,893
- Covered employment, Beaufort County15,848
- Average annual pay, Beaufort County$50,313
- Average weekly wage, Beaufort County$968
- Housing units permitted, Beaufort County216
- Of those, single family, Beaufort County216
- County product, 2024, Beaufort County$2,369,178,000
- County product change over the prior year, Beaufort County5.5 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Beaufort County$64,449
Every figure in this section is published for Beaufort County as a whole and is not a measurement of Washington. 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.
- 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
Washington questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Washington, North Carolina?
9,726, in 4,709 households. Washington city covers 8.19 square miles of land, which is 1,188 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is Washington in?
Beaufort County, which holds 100.0 percent of the place by area. Source: US Census Bureau, cartographic boundary file, places, 2024 vintage.
What is the median household income in Washington?
$40,186. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $206,800. Median gross rent is $856 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to Washington businesses?
23 7(a) approvals totalling $23.3 m, across 11 lenders, median approval $577,100, plus 1 504 approvals worth $265,000. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Washington, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Washington borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Washington. only 3 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.
Is Washington in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Washington appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 370017, carrying Community Rating System class 7, which is a premium discount for exceeding the programme minimum. Whether a specific parcel sits in a mapped special flood hazard area is an address level question the platform answers.
Are the county figures on this page Washington figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Beaufort 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 Washington.
Is zoning published for Washington?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
