Jackson County, not Makanda

Jackson County context, not Makanda figures

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

  • Establishments in Jackson County1,196
  • Employment at those establishments, Jackson County16,485
  • Covered employment, Jackson County25,266
  • Average annual pay, Jackson County$56,398
  • Average weekly wage, Jackson County$1,085
  • Housing units permitted, Jackson County4
  • Of those, single family, Jackson County4
  • County product, 2024, Jackson County$3,297,425,000
  • County product change over the prior year, Jackson County2.0 percent
  • Average income of an arriving household, Jackson County$40,412

Every figure in this section is published for Jackson County as a whole and is not a measurement of Makanda. 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.
  • 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

Makanda questions, answered from the record.

How many people live in Makanda, Illinois?

612, in 238 households. Makanda village covers 5.28 square miles of land, which is 116 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.

Jackson County, which holds 100.0 percent of the place by area. Source: US Census Bureau, cartographic boundary file, places, 2024 vintage.

$79,000. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $242,600. Median gross rent is $954 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.

Is Makanda in the National Flood Insurance Program?

Yes. Makanda appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 170301, 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 Makanda figures?

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

Is zoning published for Makanda?

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