Iroquois County, not Gilman

Iroquois County context, not Gilman figures

These are Iroquois County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Gilman measurements.

  • Establishments in Iroquois County625
  • Employment at those establishments, Iroquois County5,568
  • Covered employment, Iroquois County7,372
  • Average annual pay, Iroquois County$50,100
  • Average weekly wage, Iroquois County$963
  • Housing units permitted, Iroquois County13
  • Of those, single family, Iroquois County13
  • County product, 2024, Iroquois County$1,424,954,000
  • County product change over the prior year, Iroquois County3.4 percent
  • Average income of an arriving household, Iroquois County$56,245

Every figure in this section is published for Iroquois County as a whole and is not a measurement of Gilman. 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.

  • 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.

Is Gilman in the National Flood Insurance Program?

Yes. Gilman appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 170293, 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 Gilman figures?

No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Iroquois 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 Gilman.

Is zoning published for Gilman?

Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
