This is a small place, and the figures below carry wide margins.
The American Community Survey reaches Metcalf through a sample, not a count, and in a place this size that sample is thin. The population estimate here is 139 with a margin of error of plus or minus 81, which is 58.3 percent of the estimate itself. Every figure whose margin reaches 20 percent is printed with that margin beside it, so you can see the width of each one rather than having to assume it.
Nothing has been removed or adjusted. These are the published federal estimates, shown with the uncertainty the Census publishes alongside them.

Edgar County, not Metcalf
Edgar County context, not Metcalf figures
These are Edgar County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Metcalf measurements.
- Establishments in Edgar County334
- Employment at those establishments, Edgar County6,798
- Covered employment, Edgar County7,065
- Average annual pay, Edgar County$54,835
- Average weekly wage, Edgar County$1,055
- Housing units permitted, Edgar County6
- Of those, single family, Edgar County6
- County product, 2024, Edgar County$1,039,014,000
- County product change over the prior year, Edgar County-0.2 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Edgar County$42,564
Every figure in this section is published for Edgar County as a whole and is not a measurement of Metcalf. 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.
- No SBA approvals are recorded to a borrower address in this place in either FOIA release.
- 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.
Common questions
Metcalf questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Metcalf, Illinois?
139, in 74 households. Metcalf village covers 0.59 square miles of land, which is 234 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.

Edgar County, which holds 100.0 percent of the place by area. Source: US Census Bureau, cartographic boundary file, places, 2024 vintage.
What is the median household income in Metcalf?
$54,881. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $55,000. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
Is Metcalf in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Metcalf appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 171100, with no Community Rating System class, so no CRS discount applies. Whether a specific parcel sits in a mapped special flood hazard area is an address level question the platform answers.
Are the county figures on this page Metcalf figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Edgar 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 Metcalf.
Is zoning published for Metcalf?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
