Greenwood County, not Greenwood
Greenwood County context, not Greenwood figures
These are Greenwood County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Greenwood measurements.
- Establishments in Greenwood County1,354
- Employment at those establishments, Greenwood County23,577
- Covered employment, Greenwood County27,679
- Average annual pay, Greenwood County$53,318
- Average weekly wage, Greenwood County$1,025
- Housing units permitted, Greenwood County193
- Of those, single family, Greenwood County193
- County product, 2024, Greenwood County$4,898,796,000
- County product change over the prior year, Greenwood County5.5 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Greenwood County$59,905
Every figure in this section is published for Greenwood County as a whole and is not a measurement of Greenwood. 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.

These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Greenwood, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Greenwood borrowers get paid back?

Are the county figures on this page Greenwood figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Greenwood 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 Greenwood.
Is zoning published for Greenwood?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
