Pottawattamie County, not Crescent

Pottawattamie County context, not Crescent figures

These are Pottawattamie County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Crescent measurements.

  • Establishments in Pottawattamie County1,920
  • Employment at those establishments, Pottawattamie County32,384
  • Covered employment, Pottawattamie County41,403
  • Average annual pay, Pottawattamie County$56,397
  • Average weekly wage, Pottawattamie County$1,085
  • Housing units permitted, Pottawattamie County681
  • Of those, single family, Pottawattamie County105
  • County product, 2024, Pottawattamie County$6,263,240,000
  • County product change over the prior year, Pottawattamie County6.7 percent
  • Average income of an arriving household, Pottawattamie County$49,744

Every figure in this section is published for Pottawattamie County as a whole and is not a measurement of Crescent. 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.

Are the county figures on this page Crescent figures?

No, and they are labelled so.

They appear in one clearly marked section as context and are never presented as measurements of Crescent.

Is zoning published for Crescent?

Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
