Genesee County, not Gaines
Genesee County context, not Gaines figures
These are Genesee County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Gaines measurements.
- Establishments in Genesee County7,733
- Employment at those establishments, Genesee County121,033
- Covered employment, Genesee County133,787
- Average annual pay, Genesee County$55,798
- Average weekly wage, Genesee County$1,073
- Housing units permitted, Genesee County420
- Of those, single family, Genesee County339
- County product, 2024, Genesee County$20,159,547,000
- County product change over the prior year, Genesee County4.2 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Genesee County$55,023
Every figure in this section is published for Genesee County as a whole and is not a measurement of Gaines. 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.
- 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 Gaines businesses?
6 7(a) approvals totalling $875,000, across 3 lenders, median approval $100,000. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Gaines, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Gaines borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Gaines. only 2 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.
Is Gaines in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Gaines appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 260293, with no Community Rating System class, so no CRS discount applies. Whether a specific parcel sits in a mapped special flood hazard area is an address level question the platform answers.
Are the county figures on this page Gaines figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Genesee 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 Gaines.
Is zoning published for Gaines?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
