Hill County, not Penelope
Hill County context, not Penelope figures
These are Hill County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Penelope measurements.
- Establishments in Hill County649
- Employment at those establishments, Hill County8,017
- Covered employment, Hill County11,535
- Average annual pay, Hill County$56,338
- Average weekly wage, Hill County$1,083
- Housing units permitted, Hill County61
- Of those, single family, Hill County56
- County product, 2024, Hill County$1,721,391,000
- County product change over the prior year, Hill County7.6 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Hill County$60,805
Every figure in this section is published for Hill County as a whole and is not a measurement of Penelope. 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.
- No median owner-occupied home value is published for this place.
- No median gross rent is published for this place.
- 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.

What is the median household income in Penelope?
$60,000. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
Is Penelope in the National Flood Insurance Program?
It is listed but not shown as participating. Penelope appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 480864, 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 Penelope figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Hill 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 Penelope.
Is zoning published for Penelope?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
