Jefferson County, not China
Jefferson County context, not China figures
These are Jefferson County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as China measurements.
- Establishments in Jefferson County5,710
- Employment at those establishments, Jefferson County105,009
- Covered employment, Jefferson County124,861
- Average annual pay, Jefferson County$69,970
- Average weekly wage, Jefferson County$1,346
- Housing units permitted, Jefferson County356
- Of those, single family, Jefferson County336
- County product, 2024, Jefferson County$27,102,208,000
- County product change over the prior year, Jefferson County7.6 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Jefferson County$51,375
Every figure in this section is published for Jefferson County as a whole and is not a measurement of China. 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.
Common questions
China questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in China, Texas?
963, in 449 households. China city covers 1.36 square miles of land, which is 710 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is China in?
Jefferson County, which holds 100.0 percent of the place by area. Source: US Census Bureau, cartographic boundary file, places, 2024 vintage.
What is the median household income in China?
$55,104. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $186,500. Median gross rent is $950 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to China businesses?
1 7(a) approvals totalling $10,000, across 1 lenders, median approval $10,000, plus 1 504 approvals worth $211,000. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in China, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to China borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for China. only 0 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 China in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. China appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 481298, 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 China figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Jefferson 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 China.
Is zoning published for China?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
