Mecosta County, not Canadian Lakes
Mecosta County context, not Canadian Lakes figures
These are Mecosta County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Canadian Lakes measurements.
- Establishments in Mecosta County727
- Employment at those establishments, Mecosta County9,425
- Covered employment, Mecosta County12,746
- Average annual pay, Mecosta County$45,193
- Average weekly wage, Mecosta County$869
- Housing units permitted, Mecosta County116
- Of those, single family, Mecosta County116
- County product, 2024, Mecosta County$1,626,071,000
- County product change over the prior year, Mecosta County-1.0 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Mecosta County$52,638
Every figure in this section is published for Mecosta County as a whole and is not a measurement of Canadian Lakes. 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.
- No SBA approvals are recorded to a borrower address in this place in either FOIA release.
- 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.
