Cameron County, not Indian Lake
Cameron County context, not Indian Lake figures
These are Cameron County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Indian Lake measurements.
- Establishments in Cameron County6,732
- Employment at those establishments, Cameron County123,749
- Covered employment, Cameron County156,619
- Average annual pay, Cameron County$44,590
- Average weekly wage, Cameron County$857
- Housing units permitted, Cameron County2,347
- Of those, single family, Cameron County1,668
- County product, 2024, Cameron County$17,386,891,000
- County product change over the prior year, Cameron County8.4 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Cameron County$57,350
Every figure in this section is published for Cameron County as a whole and is not a measurement of Indian Lake. 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.
- 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.

Is Indian Lake in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Indian Lake appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 481695, 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 Indian Lake figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Cameron 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 Indian Lake.
Is zoning published for Indian Lake?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
