McHenry County, not Union
McHenry County context, not Union figures
These are McHenry County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Union measurements.
- Establishments in McHenry County8,140
- Employment at those establishments, McHenry County87,684
- Covered employment, McHenry County96,922
- Average annual pay, McHenry County$55,107
- Average weekly wage, McHenry County$1,060
- Housing units permitted, McHenry County1,565
- Of those, single family, McHenry County887
- County product, 2024, McHenry County$15,982,773,000
- County product change over the prior year, McHenry County4.6 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, McHenry County$80,258
Every figure in this section is published for McHenry County as a whole and is not a measurement of Union. 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
Union questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Union, Illinois?
624, in 259 households. Union village covers 0.84 square miles of land, which is 746 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is Union in?
McHenry 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 Union?
$89,844. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $252,200. Median gross rent is $1,692 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to Union businesses?
6 7(a) approvals totalling $1.0 m, across 6 lenders, median approval $150,000, plus 5 504 approvals worth $5.0 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Union, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Union borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Union. 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 Union in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Union appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 170487, 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 Union figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for McHenry 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 Union.
Is zoning published for Union?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
