Gooding County, not Gooding
Gooding County context, not Gooding figures
These are Gooding County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Gooding measurements.
- Establishments in Gooding County360
- Employment at those establishments, Gooding County3,201
- Covered employment, Gooding County6,743
- Average annual pay, Gooding County$48,813
- Average weekly wage, Gooding County$939

- County product change over the prior year, Gooding County24.3 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Gooding County$58,038
Every figure in this section is published for Gooding County as a whole and is not a measurement of Gooding. 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.
