Bailey County, not Muleshoe
Bailey County context, not Muleshoe figures
These are Bailey County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Muleshoe measurements.

- Employment at those establishments, Bailey County1,248
- Covered employment, Bailey County2,394
- Average annual pay, Bailey County$49,425

- County product change over the prior year, Bailey County5.1 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Bailey County$44,098
Every figure in this section is published for Bailey County as a whole and is not a measurement of Muleshoe. 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.
