Carroll County, not Green Forest
Carroll County context, not Green Forest figures
These are Carroll County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Green Forest measurements.
- Establishments in Carroll County722
- Employment at those establishments, Carroll County8,687
- Covered employment, Carroll County10,760
- Average annual pay, Carroll County$40,303
- Average weekly wage, Carroll County$775
- Housing units permitted, Carroll County30
- Of those, single family, Carroll County20
- County product, 2024, Carroll County$1,308,918,000
- County product change over the prior year, Carroll County18.7 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Carroll County$61,933
Every figure in this section is published for Carroll County as a whole and is not a measurement of Green Forest. 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.
