Elk County, not Longton
Elk County context, not Longton figures
These are Elk County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Longton measurements.
- Establishments in Elk County54
- Employment at those establishments, Elk County306
- Covered employment, Elk County619
- Average annual pay, Elk County$35,644
- Average weekly wage, Elk County$685
- County product, 2024, Elk County$102,258,000
- County product change over the prior year, Elk County-9.5 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Elk County$38,429
Every figure in this section is published for Elk County as a whole and is not a measurement of Longton. 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.
