Tazewell County, not East Peoria
Tazewell County context, not East Peoria figures
These are Tazewell 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 Peoria measurements.
- Establishments in Tazewell County2,772
- Employment at those establishments, Tazewell County43,738
- Covered employment, Tazewell County46,883
- Average annual pay, Tazewell County$56,089
- Average weekly wage, Tazewell County$1,079
- Housing units permitted, Tazewell County117

- County product change over the prior year, Tazewell County5.3 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Tazewell County$59,652
Every figure in this section is published for Tazewell County as a whole and is not a measurement of East Peoria. 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.

These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in East Peoria, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to East Peoria borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for East Peoria. only 2 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 East Peoria in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. East Peoria appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 170649, 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 Peoria figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Tazewell 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 Peoria.
Is zoning published for East Peoria?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
