Kootenai County, not Athol
Kootenai County context, not Athol figures
These are Kootenai County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Athol measurements.
- Establishments in Kootenai County6,221
- Employment at those establishments, Kootenai County64,571
- Covered employment, Kootenai County71,068
- Average annual pay, Kootenai County$55,888
- Average weekly wage, Kootenai County$1,075
- Housing units permitted, Kootenai County1,587
- Of those, single family, Kootenai County1,371
- County product, 2024, Kootenai County$11,538,865,000
- County product change over the prior year, Kootenai County7.1 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Kootenai County$108,936
Every figure in this section is published for Kootenai County as a whole and is not a measurement of Athol. 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.
- No median gross rent is published for this place.
- 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 Athol.
Is zoning published for Athol?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
