Lake County, not Winfield
Lake County context, not Winfield figures
These are Lake County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Winfield measurements.
- Establishments in Lake County10,566
- Employment at those establishments, Lake County171,790
- Covered employment, Lake County191,633
- Average annual pay, Lake County$61,200
- Average weekly wage, Lake County$1,177
- Housing units permitted, Lake County1,649
- Of those, single family, Lake County1,621
- County product, 2024, Lake County$31,242,109,000
- County product change over the prior year, Lake County3.3 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Lake County$56,327
Every figure in this section is published for Lake County as a whole and is not a measurement of Winfield. 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.
- This place is not listed as a community in the FEMA Community Status Book, so no NFIP participation or CRS class is shown.
- 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.
