Shelby County, not Montevallo
Shelby County context, not Montevallo figures
These are Shelby County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Montevallo measurements.
- Establishments in Shelby County5,610
- Employment at those establishments, Shelby County87,718
- Covered employment, Shelby County85,169
- Average annual pay, Shelby County$66,772
- Average weekly wage, Shelby County$1,284
- Housing units permitted, Shelby County990
- Of those, single family, Shelby County990
- County product, 2024, Shelby County$17,332,832,000
- County product change over the prior year, Shelby County3.6 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Shelby County$90,316
Every figure in this section is published for Shelby County as a whole and is not a measurement of Montevallo. 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.
