El Paso County, not Monument
El Paso County context, not Monument figures
These are El Paso County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Monument measurements.
- Establishments in El Paso County18,852
- Employment at those establishments, El Paso County267,012
- Covered employment, El Paso County309,483
- Average annual pay, El Paso County$67,491
- Average weekly wage, El Paso County$1,298
- Housing units permitted, El Paso County3,849
- Of those, single family, El Paso County2,733

- County product change over the prior year, El Paso County6.0 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, El Paso County$68,814
Every figure in this section is published for El Paso County as a whole and is not a measurement of Monument. 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.

No, and they are labelled so.

They appear in one clearly marked section as context and are never presented as measurements of Monument.
Is zoning published for Monument?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
