Delta County, not Paonia
Delta County context, not Paonia figures
These are Delta County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Paonia measurements.
- Establishments in Delta County878
- Employment at those establishments, Delta County6,516
- Covered employment, Delta County8,997
- Average annual pay, Delta County$47,843
- Average weekly wage, Delta County$920
- Housing units permitted, Delta County115
- Of those, single family, Delta County63
- County product, 2024, Delta County$1,203,050,000
- County product change over the prior year, Delta County5.7 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Delta County$72,942
Every figure in this section is published for Delta County as a whole and is not a measurement of Paonia. 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.
