Honolulu County, not Waianae
Honolulu County context, not Waianae figures
These are Honolulu County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Waianae measurements.
- Establishments in Honolulu County20,890
- Employment at those establishments, Honolulu County331,937
- Covered employment, Honolulu County453,193
- Average annual pay, Honolulu County$69,851
- Average weekly wage, Honolulu County$1,343
- Housing units permitted, Honolulu County1,638
- Of those, single family, Honolulu County706
- County product, 2024, Honolulu County$87,066,455,000
- County product change over the prior year, Honolulu County5.5 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Honolulu County$82,445
Every figure in this section is published for Honolulu County as a whole and is not a measurement of Waianae. 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.

How much SBA lending goes to Waianae businesses?
6 7(a) approvals totalling $1.0 m, across 2 lenders, median approval $50,000, plus 2 504 approvals worth $323,000. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Waianae, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Waianae borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Waianae. only 3 resolved loans, too few to publish a rate, and a percentage over that few outcomes would move several points on a single loan. The counts are shown instead.
Are the county figures on this page Waianae figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Honolulu 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 Waianae.
Is zoning published for Waianae?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
