Saline County, not Eldorado
Saline County context, not Eldorado figures
These are Saline County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Eldorado measurements.
- Establishments in Saline County538
- Employment at those establishments, Saline County5,502
- Covered employment, Saline County8,307
- Average annual pay, Saline County$46,586
- Average weekly wage, Saline County$896
- Housing units permitted, Saline County0

- County product, 2024, Saline County$1,122,647,000
- County product change over the prior year, Saline County7.4 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Saline County$40,040
Every figure in this section is published for Saline County as a whole and is not a measurement of Eldorado. 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.

$37,154. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $66,200. Median gross rent is $657 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to Eldorado businesses?
9 7(a) approvals totalling $3.9 m, across 5 lenders, median approval $300,000. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Eldorado, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Eldorado borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Eldorado. only 4 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 Eldorado in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Eldorado appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 170596, 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 Eldorado figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Saline 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 Eldorado.
Is zoning published for Eldorado?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
