This is a small place, and the figures below carry wide margins.
The American Community Survey reaches Lower Salem through a sample, not a count, and in a place this size that sample is thin. The population estimate here is 92 with a margin of error of plus or minus 63, which is 68.5 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.

Washington County, not Lower Salem
Washington County context, not Lower Salem figures
These are Washington County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Lower Salem measurements.
- Establishments in Washington County1,378
- Employment at those establishments, Washington County23,113
- Covered employment, Washington County25,263
- Average annual pay, Washington County$59,165

- County product, 2024, Washington County$4,760,394,000
- County product change over the prior year, Washington County3.6 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Washington County$55,759
Every figure in this section is published for Washington County as a whole and is not a measurement of Lower Salem. 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 Lower Salem in the National Flood Insurance Program?

Is zoning published for Lower Salem?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
