Riley County, not Fort Riley
Riley County context, not Fort Riley figures
These are Riley County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Fort Riley measurements.
- Establishments in Riley County1,620
- Employment at those establishments, Riley County20,580
- Covered employment, Riley County30,349
- Average annual pay, Riley County$52,341
- Average weekly wage, Riley County$1,007
- Housing units permitted, Riley County126

- County product, 2024, Riley County$3,813,708,000
- County product change over the prior year, Riley County4.2 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Riley County$52,374
Every figure in this section is published for Riley County as a whole and is not a measurement of Fort Riley. 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 owner-occupied home value 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.
