Franklin County, not Alexander
Franklin County context, not Alexander figures
These are Franklin County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Alexander measurements.
- Establishments in Franklin County285
- Employment at those establishments, Franklin County3,139
- Covered employment, Franklin County3,982
- Average annual pay, Franklin County$53,225
- Average weekly wage, Franklin County$1,024
- Housing units permitted, Franklin County5
- Of those, single family, Franklin County5
- County product, 2024, Franklin County$789,823,000
- County product change over the prior year, Franklin County0.4 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Franklin County$53,200
Every figure in this section is published for Franklin County as a whole and is not a measurement of Alexander. 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.
- 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.
