Macoupin County, not Staunton
Macoupin County context, not Staunton figures
These are Macoupin County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Staunton measurements.
- Establishments in Macoupin County813
- Employment at those establishments, Macoupin County7,626
- Covered employment, Macoupin County10,150
- Average annual pay, Macoupin County$46,689
- Average weekly wage, Macoupin County$898
- Housing units permitted, Macoupin County65
- Of those, single family, Macoupin County59
- County product, 2024, Macoupin County$1,525,271,000
- County product change over the prior year, Macoupin County1.9 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Macoupin County$52,249
Every figure in this section is published for Macoupin County as a whole and is not a measurement of Staunton. 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.
Common questions

4,298, in 2,002 households. Staunton city covers 4.01 square miles of land, which is 1,072 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.

$57,904. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $143,500. Median gross rent is $630 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to Staunton businesses?
5 7(a) approvals totalling $5.3 m, across 4 lenders, median approval $150,000, plus 7 504 approvals worth $3.8 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Staunton, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Staunton borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Staunton. only 2 resolved loans, too few to publish a rate, and a percentage over that few outcomes would move several points on a single loan. The counts are shown instead.
Is Staunton in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Staunton appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 170434, 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 Staunton figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Macoupin 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 Staunton.
Is zoning published for Staunton?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
