Murray County, not Sulphur
Murray County context, not Sulphur figures
These are Murray County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Sulphur measurements.
- Establishments in Murray County291
- Employment at those establishments, Murray County3,532
- Covered employment, Murray County4,854
- Average annual pay, Murray County$49,119
- Average weekly wage, Murray County$945
- Housing units permitted, Murray County13
- Of those, single family, Murray County13
- County product, 2024, Murray County$687,906,000
- County product change over the prior year, Murray County-0.2 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Murray County$47,664
Every figure in this section is published for Murray County as a whole and is not a measurement of Sulphur. 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.
