Clayton County, not Monona
Clayton County context, not Monona figures
These are Clayton County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Monona measurements.
- Establishments in Clayton County487
- Employment at those establishments, Clayton County4,999
- Covered employment, Clayton County6,230
- Average annual pay, Clayton County$51,349
- Average weekly wage, Clayton County$987
- Housing units permitted, Clayton County55
- Of those, single family, Clayton County49
- County product, 2024, Clayton County$1,176,802,000
- County product change over the prior year, Clayton County3.8 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Clayton County$60,058
Every figure in this section is published for Clayton County as a whole and is not a measurement of Monona. 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.
- 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.
