Beadle County, not Wolsey
Beadle County context, not Wolsey figures
These are Beadle County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Wolsey measurements.
- Establishments in Beadle County573
- Employment at those establishments, Beadle County6,840
- Covered employment, Beadle County8,574
- Average annual pay, Beadle County$50,493
- Average weekly wage, Beadle County$971
- Housing units permitted, Beadle County30
- Of those, single family, Beadle County24
- County product, 2024, Beadle County$1,235,517,000
- County product change over the prior year, Beadle County-2.9 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Beadle County$43,810
Every figure in this section is published for Beadle County as a whole and is not a measurement of Wolsey. 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.
- 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.
