Posey County, not Mount Vernon
Posey County context, not Mount Vernon figures
These are Posey County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Mount Vernon measurements.
- Establishments in Posey County538
- Employment at those establishments, Posey County9,770
- Covered employment, Posey County8,961
- Average annual pay, Posey County$68,064
- Average weekly wage, Posey County$1,309
- Housing units permitted, Posey County46
- Of those, single family, Posey County46
- County product, 2024, Posey County$5,935,415,000
- County product change over the prior year, Posey County-2.7 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Posey County$55,974
Every figure in this section is published for Posey County as a whole and is not a measurement of Mount Vernon. 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.
- 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.
