Dale County, not Ozark
Dale County context, not Ozark figures
These are Dale County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Ozark measurements.
- Establishments in Dale County716
- Employment at those establishments, Dale County8,328
- Covered employment, Dale County18,260
- Average annual pay, Dale County$64,321
- Average weekly wage, Dale County$1,237
- Housing units permitted, Dale County39
- Of those, single family, Dale County39
- County product, 2024, Dale County$3,915,372,000
- County product change over the prior year, Dale County5.8 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Dale County$50,909
Every figure in this section is published for Dale County as a whole and is not a measurement of Ozark. 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.
