Monterey County, not Pajaro
Monterey County context, not Pajaro figures
These are Monterey County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Pajaro measurements.
- Establishments in Monterey County9,212
- Employment at those establishments, Monterey County116,784
- Covered employment, Monterey County200,244
- Average annual pay, Monterey County$61,375
- Average weekly wage, Monterey County$1,180
- Housing units permitted, Monterey County677
- Of those, single family, Monterey County512
- County product, 2024, Monterey County$38,345,355,000
- County product change over the prior year, Monterey County3.5 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Monterey County$202,252
Every figure in this section is published for Monterey County as a whole and is not a measurement of Pajaro. 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.
- No SBA approvals are recorded to a borrower address in this place in either FOIA release.
- 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.
