Tarrant County, not Lake Worth
Tarrant County context, not Lake Worth figures
These are Tarrant County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Lake Worth measurements.
- Establishments in Tarrant County47,656
- Employment at those establishments, Tarrant County882,289
- Covered employment, Tarrant County1,010,352
- Average annual pay, Tarrant County$72,674
- Average weekly wage, Tarrant County$1,398
- Housing units permitted, Tarrant County18,858
- Of those, single family, Tarrant County9,380
- County product, 2024, Tarrant County$178,003,332,000
- County product change over the prior year, Tarrant County6.2 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Tarrant County$79,101
Every figure in this section is published for Tarrant County as a whole and is not a measurement of Lake Worth. 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.

These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Lake Worth, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Lake Worth borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Lake Worth. 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 Lake Worth in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Lake Worth appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 480605, 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 Lake Worth figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Tarrant 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 Lake Worth.
Is zoning published for Lake Worth?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
