Brazoria County, not Freeport
Brazoria County context, not Freeport figures
These are Brazoria County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Freeport measurements.
- Establishments in Brazoria County6,650
- Employment at those establishments, Brazoria County98,916
- Covered employment, Brazoria County122,793
- Average annual pay, Brazoria County$68,223
- Average weekly wage, Brazoria County$1,312
- Housing units permitted, Brazoria County3,963
- Of those, single family, Brazoria County3,363
- County product, 2024, Brazoria County$23,375,756,000
- County product change over the prior year, Brazoria County3.9 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Brazoria County$69,560
Every figure in this section is published for Brazoria County as a whole and is not a measurement of Freeport. 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.

How much SBA lending goes to Freeport businesses?
6 7(a) approvals totalling $7.8 m, across 4 lenders, median approval $2,100,000, plus 1 504 approvals worth $421,000. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Freeport, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Freeport borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Freeport. only 4 resolved loans, too few to publish a rate, and a percentage over that few outcomes would move several points on a single loan. The counts are shown instead.
Is Freeport in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Freeport appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 485467, with no Community Rating System class, so no CRS discount applies. 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 Freeport figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Brazoria 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 Freeport.
Is zoning published for Freeport?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
