Stephenson County, not Lena
Stephenson County context, not Lena figures
These are Stephenson County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Lena measurements.
- Establishments in Stephenson County1,003
- Employment at those establishments, Stephenson County15,626
- Covered employment, Stephenson County17,367
- Average annual pay, Stephenson County$55,932
- Average weekly wage, Stephenson County$1,076
- Housing units permitted, Stephenson County5

- County product, 2024, Stephenson County$2,485,213,000
- County product change over the prior year, Stephenson County6.2 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Stephenson County$49,710
Every figure in this section is published for Stephenson County as a whole and is not a measurement of Lena. 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 Lena in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Lena appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 171340, 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 Lena figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Stephenson 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 Lena.
Is zoning published for Lena?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
