Osborne County, not Alton
Osborne County context, not Alton figures
These are Osborne County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Alton measurements.
- Establishments in Osborne County134
- Employment at those establishments, Osborne County993
- Covered employment, Osborne County1,251
- Average annual pay, Osborne County$41,453
- Average weekly wage, Osborne County$797
- Housing units permitted, Osborne County0
- Of those, single family, Osborne County0
- County product, 2024, Osborne County$183,767,000
- County product change over the prior year, Osborne County-26.4 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Osborne County$42,623
Every figure in this section is published for Osborne County as a whole and is not a measurement of Alton. 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.
- The American Community Survey does not publish a median household income for this place, which happens where the sample is too small to support one.
- 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.
Common questions

Are the county figures on this page Alton figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Osborne County as a whole and there is no place level equivalent. They appear in one clearly marked section as context and are never presented as measurements of Alton.
Is zoning published for Alton?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
