Mason County, not Mason
Mason County context, not Mason figures
These are Mason County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Mason measurements.
- Establishments in Mason County324
- Employment at those establishments, Mason County3,946
- Covered employment, Mason County6,171
- Average annual pay, Mason County$59,568
- Average weekly wage, Mason County$1,146
- Housing units permitted, Mason County8
- Of those, single family, Mason County2
- County product, 2024, Mason County$1,093,491,000
- County product change over the prior year, Mason County9.1 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Mason County$45,829
Every figure in this section is published for Mason County as a whole and is not a measurement of Mason. 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.
- 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.
