Before you build: what Paradise looks like from a business owner’s chair

Mining, oil and gas account for 4.4% of the employer establishments in Wise County, far more than the national share. Energy work creates demand for contractors, trucking and repair that moves with the industry. Certifications belong on a contractor’s website, in writing.

Paradise since the 2020 Census

Every annual estimate since 2020 has been higher than the year before: 497 in 2020, then 535 in 2021, 605 in 2022, 705 in 2023, 758 in 2024, 807 in 2025. For Texas, the five-year change was +8.8%.
