Sangamon County, not Thayer
Sangamon County context, not Thayer figures
These are Sangamon County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Thayer measurements.
- Establishments in Sangamon County4,925
- Employment at those establishments, Sangamon County80,005
- Covered employment, Sangamon County134,376
- Average annual pay, Sangamon County$69,350
- Average weekly wage, Sangamon County$1,334
- Housing units permitted, Sangamon County191
- Of those, single family, Sangamon County123
- County product, 2024, Sangamon County$15,668,703,000
- County product change over the prior year, Sangamon County7.0 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Sangamon County$58,644
Every figure in this section is published for Sangamon County as a whole and is not a measurement of Thayer. 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.
- No SBA approvals are recorded to a borrower address in this place in either FOIA release.
- 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.

Is Thayer in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Thayer appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 170804, 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 Thayer figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Sangamon 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 Thayer.
Is zoning published for Thayer?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
