Aransas County, not Lamar
Aransas County context, not Lamar figures
These are Aransas County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Lamar measurements.
- Establishments in Aransas County610
- Employment at those establishments, Aransas County4,500
- Covered employment, Aransas County6,243
- Average annual pay, Aransas County$45,266
- Average weekly wage, Aransas County$870
- Housing units permitted, Aransas County204
- Of those, single family, Aransas County204
- County product, 2024, Aransas County$961,345,000
- County product change over the prior year, Aransas County2.0 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Aransas County$83,201
Every figure in this section is published for Aransas County as a whole and is not a measurement of Lamar. 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.
- No median gross rent is published for this place.
- 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.
