York County, not South Berwick
York County context, not South Berwick figures
These are York County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as South Berwick measurements.
- Establishments in York County5,914
- Employment at those establishments, York County56,640
- Covered employment, York County79,378
- Average annual pay, York County$61,811
- Average weekly wage, York County$1,189
- Housing units permitted, York County1,408
- Of those, single family, York County1,009
- County product, 2024, York County$13,649,896,000
- County product change over the prior year, York County6.8 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, York County$89,547
Every figure in this section is published for York County as a whole and is not a measurement of South Berwick. 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.

Do SBA loans to South Berwick borrowers get paid back?

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