Rock Island County, not East Moline
Rock Island County context, not East Moline figures
These are Rock Island County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as East Moline measurements.

- Employment at those establishments, Rock Island County64,307
- Covered employment, Rock Island County70,119
- Average annual pay, Rock Island County$72,332

Every figure in this section is published for Rock Island County as a whole and is not a measurement of East Moline. 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.

Do SBA loans to East Moline borrowers get paid back?

Is East Moline in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. East Moline appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 170587, 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 East Moline figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Rock Island 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 East Moline.
Is zoning published for East Moline?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
