Hays County, not Hays
Hays County context, not Hays figures
These are Hays County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Hays measurements.
- Establishments in Hays County5,891
- Employment at those establishments, Hays County76,995
- Covered employment, Hays County95,598
- Average annual pay, Hays County$54,838
- Average weekly wage, Hays County$1,055
- Housing units permitted, Hays County5,405
- Of those, single family, Hays County3,918
- County product, 2024, Hays County$15,303,461,000
- County product change over the prior year, Hays County8.9 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Hays County$104,368
Every figure in this section is published for Hays County as a whole and is not a measurement of Hays. 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 Hays in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Hays appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 481669, 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 Hays figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Hays 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 Hays.
Is zoning published for Hays?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
