Jefferson Parish, not Kenner
Jefferson Parish context, not Kenner figures
These are Jefferson Parish figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Kenner measurements.

- Employment at those establishments, Jefferson Parish177,065
- Covered employment, Jefferson Parish184,764
- Average annual pay, Jefferson Parish$63,803

- County product change over the prior year, Jefferson Parish4.5 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Jefferson Parish$56,944
Every figure in this section is published for Jefferson Parish as a whole and is not a measurement of Kenner. 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.
- 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.

How much SBA lending goes to Kenner businesses?
61 7(a) approvals totalling $22.0 m, across 24 lenders, median approval $150,000, plus 4 504 approvals worth $8.9 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Kenner, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Kenner borrowers get paid back?

Are the county figures on this page Kenner figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Jefferson Parish 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 Kenner.
Is zoning published for Kenner?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
