Floyd County, not Wheelwright
Floyd County context, not Wheelwright figures
These are Floyd County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Wheelwright measurements.
- Establishments in Floyd County700
- Employment at those establishments, Floyd County7,604
- Covered employment, Floyd County11,156
- Average annual pay, Floyd County$47,449
- Average weekly wage, Floyd County$912

- County product change over the prior year, Floyd County3.8 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Floyd County$39,863
Every figure in this section is published for Floyd County as a whole and is not a measurement of Wheelwright. 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.
- 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.

No, and they are labelled so.
