Alameda County, not San Leandro
Alameda County context, not San Leandro figures
These are Alameda County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as San Leandro measurements.
- Establishments in Alameda County42,318
- Employment at those establishments, Alameda County749,124
- Covered employment, Alameda County790,358
- Average annual pay, Alameda County$98,026
- Average weekly wage, Alameda County$1,885
- Housing units permitted, Alameda County1,743
- Of those, single family, Alameda County826
- County product, 2024, Alameda County$182,539,223,000
- County product change over the prior year, Alameda County3.9 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Alameda County$142,638
Every figure in this section is published for Alameda County as a whole and is not a measurement of San Leandro. 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
San Leandro questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in San Leandro, California?
87,826, in 30,454 households. San Leandro city covers 13.32 square miles of land, which is 6,592 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is San Leandro in?
Alameda 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 San Leandro?
$101,420. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $844,200. Median gross rent is $2,186 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to San Leandro businesses?
99 7(a) approvals totalling $50.4 m, across 36 lenders, median approval $250,000, plus 88 504 approvals worth $100.8 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in San Leandro, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to San Leandro borrowers get paid back?
Of the 19 loans that have reached a final outcome, 17 were paid in full and 2 charged off, a charge off rate of 10.5 percent. Loans still running are excluded because they have not yet succeeded or failed.
Is San Leandro in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. San Leandro appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 060013, carrying Community Rating System class 8, 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 San Leandro figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Alameda 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 San Leandro.
Is zoning published for San Leandro?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
