Lipscomb County, not Booker
Lipscomb County context, not Booker figures
These are Lipscomb County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Booker measurements.
- Establishments in Lipscomb County77
- Employment at those establishments, Lipscomb County896
- Covered employment, Lipscomb County1,233
- Average annual pay, Lipscomb County$52,631
- Average weekly wage, Lipscomb County$1,012

- County product change over the prior year, Lipscomb County-3.7 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Lipscomb County$55,821
Every figure in this section is published for Lipscomb County as a whole and is not a measurement of Booker. 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.
Common questions
Booker questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Booker, Texas?
1,311, in 453 households. Booker town covers 1.05 square miles of land, which is 1,245 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is Booker in?
Booker lies in more than one. By area it is 81.0 percent in Lipscomb County, 19.0 percent in Ochiltree County. This page sits under Lipscomb County because that county holds the largest share. The split is measured from the Census boundary of the place against the county boundaries.
What is the median household income in Booker?
$69,464. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $150,200. Median gross rent is $946 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
Is Booker in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Booker appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 480444, 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 Booker figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Lipscomb 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 Booker.
Is zoning published for Booker?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
