Wilson County, not Sims
Wilson County context, not Sims figures
These are Wilson County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Sims measurements.
- Establishments in Wilson County1,818
- Employment at those establishments, Wilson County32,253
- Covered employment, Wilson County35,117
- Average annual pay, Wilson County$54,643
- Average weekly wage, Wilson County$1,051
- Housing units permitted, Wilson County580
- Of those, single family, Wilson County398
- County product, 2024, Wilson County$5,166,194,000
- County product change over the prior year, Wilson County4.7 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Wilson County$47,465
Every figure in this section is published for Wilson County as a whole and is not a measurement of Sims. 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.
- 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.

Is Sims in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Sims appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 370423, with no Community Rating System class, so no CRS discount applies. 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 Sims figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Wilson 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 Sims.
Is zoning published for Sims?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
