Lane County, not Dighton
Lane County context, not Dighton figures
These are Lane County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Dighton measurements.
- Establishments in Lane County73
- Employment at those establishments, Lane County301
- Covered employment, Lane County605
- Average annual pay, Lane County$47,079
- Average weekly wage, Lane County$905
- Housing units permitted, Lane County0
- Of those, single family, Lane County0
- County product, 2024, Lane County$173,853,000
- County product change over the prior year, Lane County-10.3 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Lane County$48,900
Every figure in this section is published for Lane County as a whole and is not a measurement of Dighton. 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.
- 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 owner-occupied home value is published for this place.
- 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.
