Aroostook County, not Presque Isle
Aroostook County context, not Presque Isle figures
These are Aroostook County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Presque Isle measurements.
- Establishments in Aroostook County1,903
- Employment at those establishments, Aroostook County19,837
- Covered employment, Aroostook County25,999
- Average annual pay, Aroostook County$51,148
- Average weekly wage, Aroostook County$984
- Housing units permitted, Aroostook County82
- Of those, single family, Aroostook County60
- County product, 2024, Aroostook County$3,669,941,000
- County product change over the prior year, Aroostook County6.8 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Aroostook County$62,185
Every figure in this section is published for Aroostook County as a whole and is not a measurement of Presque Isle. 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.

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