This is a small place, and the figures below carry wide margins.
The American Community Survey reaches La Ward through a sample, not a count, and in a place this size that sample is thin. The population estimate here is 178 with a margin of error of plus or minus 122, which is 68.5 percent of the estimate itself. Every figure whose margin reaches 20 percent is printed with that margin beside it, so you can see the width of each one rather than having to assume it.
Nothing has been removed or adjusted. These are the published federal estimates, shown with the uncertainty the Census publishes alongside them.

Jackson County, not La Ward
Jackson County context, not La Ward figures
These are Jackson County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as La Ward measurements.
- Establishments in Jackson County337
- Employment at those establishments, Jackson County5,775
- Covered employment, Jackson County5,632
- Average annual pay, Jackson County$56,510
- Average weekly wage, Jackson County$1,087
- Housing units permitted, Jackson County0
- Of those, single family, Jackson County0
- County product, 2024, Jackson County$772,133,000
- County product change over the prior year, Jackson County2.3 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Jackson County$74,497
Every figure in this section is published for Jackson County as a whole and is not a measurement of La Ward. 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.
- The American Community Survey does not publish a median household income for this place, which happens where the sample is too small to support one.
- 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
La Ward questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in La Ward, Texas?
178, in 70 households. La Ward city covers 0.81 square miles of land, which is 219 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is La Ward in?
Jackson County, which holds 100.0 percent of the place by area. Source: US Census Bureau, cartographic boundary file, places, 2024 vintage.
Is La Ward in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. La Ward appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 481074, 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 La Ward figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Jackson 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 La Ward.
Is zoning published for La Ward?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
