St. Croix County, not Hudson
St. Croix County context, not Hudson figures
These are St. Croix County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Hudson measurements.
- Establishments in St. Croix County2,422
- Employment at those establishments, St. Croix County31,951
- Covered employment, St. Croix County36,959
- Average annual pay, St. Croix County$55,261
- Average weekly wage, St. Croix County$1,063
- Housing units permitted, St. Croix County400
- Of those, single family, St. Croix County354
- County product, 2024, St. Croix County$6,014,624,000
- County product change over the prior year, St. Croix County5.4 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, St. Croix County$86,060
Every figure in this section is published for St. Croix County as a whole and is not a measurement of Hudson. 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.
Common questions
Hudson questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Hudson, Wisconsin?
14,959, in 6,577 households. Hudson city covers 6.82 square miles of land, which is 2,192 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.

How much SBA lending goes to Hudson businesses?
108 7(a) approvals totalling $31.5 m, across 29 lenders, median approval $100,000, plus 57 504 approvals worth $38.9 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Hudson, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Hudson borrowers get paid back?
Of the 35 loans that have reached a final outcome, 32 were paid in full and 3 charged off, a charge off rate of 8.6 percent. Loans still running are excluded because they have not yet succeeded or failed.
Are the county figures on this page Hudson figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for St. Croix 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 Hudson.
Is zoning published for Hudson?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
