Northampton County, not Easton
Northampton County context, not Easton figures
These are Northampton County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Easton measurements.
- Establishments in Northampton County6,529
- Employment at those establishments, Northampton County121,192
- Covered employment, Northampton County120,976
- Average annual pay, Northampton County$60,298
- Average weekly wage, Northampton County$1,160
- Housing units permitted, Northampton County546
- Of those, single family, Northampton County372
- County product, 2024, Northampton County$20,981,619,000
- County product change over the prior year, Northampton County3.9 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Northampton County$73,377
Every figure in this section is published for Northampton County as a whole and is not a measurement of Easton. 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
Easton questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Easton, Pennsylvania?
29,739, in 10,352 households. Easton city covers 4.26 square miles of land, which is 6,976 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is Easton in?
Northampton 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 Easton?
$69,348. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $196,300. Median gross rent is $1,325 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to Easton businesses?
102 7(a) approvals totalling $44.3 m, across 35 lenders, median approval $150,000, plus 12 504 approvals worth $16.8 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Easton, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Easton borrowers get paid back?
Of the 17 loans that have reached a final outcome, 13 were paid in full and 4 charged off, a charge off rate of 23.5 percent. Loans still running are excluded because they have not yet succeeded or failed.
Is Easton in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Easton appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 425383, 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 Easton figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Northampton 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 Easton.
Is zoning published for Easton?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
