Montgomery County, not Olney
Montgomery County context, not Olney figures
These are Montgomery County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Olney measurements.
- Establishments in Montgomery County27,677
- Employment at those establishments, Montgomery County439,792
- Covered employment, Montgomery County462,298
- Average annual pay, Montgomery County$94,473
- Average weekly wage, Montgomery County$1,817
- Housing units permitted, Montgomery County3,656
- Of those, single family, Montgomery County1,491
- County product, 2024, Montgomery County$117,389,979,000
- County product change over the prior year, Montgomery County4.3 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Montgomery County$106,809
Every figure in this section is published for Montgomery County as a whole and is not a measurement of Olney. 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 Olney borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Olney. only 9 resolved loans, too few to publish a rate, and a percentage over that few outcomes would move several points on a single loan. The counts are shown instead.
Are the county figures on this page Olney figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Montgomery 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 Olney.
Is zoning published for Olney?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
