Bexar County, not San Antonio
Bexar County context, not San Antonio figures
These are Bexar County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as San Antonio measurements.
- Establishments in Bexar County39,726
- Employment at those establishments, Bexar County821,509
- Covered employment, Bexar County932,387
- Average annual pay, Bexar County$65,875
- Average weekly wage, Bexar County$1,267
- Housing units permitted, Bexar County8,349
- Of those, single family, Bexar County5,815
- County product, 2024, Bexar County$159,588,712,000
- County product change over the prior year, Bexar County6.6 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Bexar County$67,067
Every figure in this section is published for Bexar County as a whole and is not a measurement of San Antonio. 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
San Antonio questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in San Antonio, Texas?
1,479,835, in 554,581 households. San Antonio city covers 498.95 square miles of land, which is 2,966 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is San Antonio in?
Bexar County, which holds 99.9 percent of the place by area. Source: US Census Bureau, cartographic boundary file, places, 2024 vintage.
What is the median household income in San Antonio?
$65,056. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $235,700. Median gross rent is $1,324 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to San Antonio businesses?
1,465 7(a) approvals totalling $962.3 m, across 171 lenders, median approval $290,000, plus 341 504 approvals worth $313.7 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in San Antonio, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to San Antonio borrowers get paid back?
Of the 216 loans that have reached a final outcome, 196 were paid in full and 20 charged off, a charge off rate of 9.3 percent. Loans still running are excluded because they have not yet succeeded or failed.
Is San Antonio in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. San Antonio appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 480045, carrying Community Rating System class 6, which is a premium discount for exceeding the programme minimum. 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 San Antonio figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Bexar 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 San Antonio.
Is zoning published for San Antonio?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
