Madison County, not Godfrey
Madison County context, not Godfrey figures
These are Madison County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Godfrey measurements.
- Establishments in Madison County5,659
- Employment at those establishments, Madison County93,915
- Covered employment, Madison County105,166
- Average annual pay, Madison County$57,153
- Average weekly wage, Madison County$1,099

- County product, 2024, Madison County$16,575,291,000
- County product change over the prior year, Madison County6.9 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Madison County$53,270
Every figure in this section is published for Madison County as a whole and is not a measurement of Godfrey. 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.

How many people live in Godfrey, Illinois?
17,712, in 7,452 households. Godfrey village covers 34.39 square miles of land, which is 515 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.

How much SBA lending goes to Godfrey businesses?
9 7(a) approvals totalling $2.6 m, across 6 lenders, median approval $83,700, plus 4 504 approvals worth $1.4 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Godfrey, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Godfrey borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Godfrey. only 1 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 Godfrey in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Godfrey appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 171031, 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 Godfrey figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Madison 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 Godfrey.
Is zoning published for Godfrey?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
