St. Clair County, not Smithton
St. Clair County context, not Smithton figures
These are St. Clair County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Smithton measurements.
- Establishments in St. Clair County4,973
- Employment at those establishments, St. Clair County72,871
- Covered employment, St. Clair County89,981
- Average annual pay, St. Clair County$57,001
- Average weekly wage, St. Clair County$1,096
- Housing units permitted, St. Clair County740

- Average income of an arriving household, St. Clair County$57,798
Every figure in this section is published for St. Clair County as a whole and is not a measurement of Smithton. 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 median gross rent is published for this place.
- 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.
