Palo Alto County, not Curlew
Palo Alto County context, not Curlew figures
These are Palo Alto County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Curlew measurements.
- Establishments in Palo Alto County272
- Employment at those establishments, Palo Alto County2,881
- Covered employment, Palo Alto County3,615
- Average annual pay, Palo Alto County$47,406
- Average weekly wage, Palo Alto County$912
- Housing units permitted, Palo Alto County10

- County product change over the prior year, Palo Alto County12.4 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Palo Alto County$51,412
Every figure in this section is published for Palo Alto County as a whole and is not a measurement of Curlew. 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.
