Maricopa County, not Glendale
Maricopa County context, not Glendale figures
These are Maricopa County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Glendale measurements.
- Establishments in Maricopa County109,863
- Employment at those establishments, Maricopa County2,016,986
- Covered employment, Maricopa County2,280,645
- Average annual pay, Maricopa County$73,840
- Average weekly wage, Maricopa County$1,420
- Housing units permitted, Maricopa County36,380
- Of those, single family, Maricopa County21,667

- County product change over the prior year, Maricopa County7.7 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Maricopa County$98,820
Every figure in this section is published for Maricopa County as a whole and is not a measurement of Glendale. 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.
- 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
Glendale questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Glendale, Arizona?
252,833, in 88,633 households. Glendale city covers 67.25 square miles of land, which is 3,760 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is Glendale in?
Maricopa County, which holds 100.0 percent of the place by area. Source: US Census Bureau, cartographic boundary file, places, 2024 vintage.
What is the median household income in Glendale?
$73,530. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $387,500. Median gross rent is $1,528 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to Glendale businesses?
283 7(a) approvals totalling $139.4 m, across 67 lenders, median approval $286,000, plus 61 504 approvals worth $52.5 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Glendale, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Glendale borrowers get paid back?
Of the 58 loans that have reached a final outcome, 54 were paid in full and 4 charged off, a charge off rate of 6.9 percent. Loans still running are excluded because they have not yet succeeded or failed.
Is Glendale in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Glendale appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 040045, carrying Community Rating System class 6, which is a premium discount for exceeding the programme minimum. Whether a specific parcel sits in a mapped special flood hazard area is an address level question the platform answers.
Are the county figures on this page Glendale figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Maricopa 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 Glendale.
Is zoning published for Glendale?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
