A ZIP code that is mostly the city
For many small East Texas towns, ZIP code figures describe a wide rural postal area. White Oak is an exception: the city covers about 82 percent of ZIP 75693's land (U.S. Census Bureau, 2020 ZIP code tabulation area to place relationship file), so the ZIP's business counts give a reasonably close picture of the town itself, though they still include addresses outside city limits.
In 2023 ZIP 75693 had 138 employer establishments, 2,052 paid employees and an annual payroll of about $89.7 million. Only 41.3 percent of those employers had fewer than five employees (U.S. Census Bureau, ZIP Code Business Patterns 2023), a lower share than in the office's ZIP code, 75601, where the figure was 50.9 percent. White Oak's employers, in other words, lean slightly larger.

Source: U.S. Census Bureau, ZIP Code Business Patterns 2023. Other services, the largest group, covers repair shops, personal services and similar businesses. None of the 13 manufacturing establishments had fewer than five employees, and every professional-services firm did. Those two groups sit at opposite ends of the funding conversation: plant equipment and payroll on one side, the owner's own credit and a small working-capital need on the other.
The Gregg County, TX picture
White Oak lies entirely within Gregg County, so county figures are fair context here.

The two counts come from different programs and years and should not be added.

- Your articles of organization or incorporation and the EIN letter
