Addison County, not Bristol
Addison County context, not Bristol figures
These are Addison County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Bristol measurements.
- Establishments in Addison County1,158
- Employment at those establishments, Addison County13,471
- Covered employment, Addison County15,525
- Average annual pay, Addison County$60,042
- Average weekly wage, Addison County$1,155
- Housing units permitted, Addison County113
- Of those, single family, Addison County105
- County product, 2024, Addison County$2,305,446,000
- County product change over the prior year, Addison County7.3 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Addison County$76,850
Every figure in this section is published for Addison County as a whole and is not a measurement of Bristol. 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.
- This place is not listed as a community in the FEMA Community Status Book, so no NFIP participation or CRS class is shown.
- 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.
