Newaygo County, not Fremont
Newaygo County context, not Fremont figures
These are Newaygo County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Fremont measurements.
- Establishments in Newaygo County829
- Employment at those establishments, Newaygo County11,124
- Covered employment, Newaygo County11,901
- Average annual pay, Newaygo County$49,371
- Average weekly wage, Newaygo County$949
- Housing units permitted, Newaygo County152
- Of those, single family, Newaygo County146
- County product, 2024, Newaygo County$2,076,671,000
- County product change over the prior year, Newaygo County3.8 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Newaygo County$55,013
Every figure in this section is published for Newaygo County as a whole and is not a measurement of Fremont. 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 Fremont businesses?
21 7(a) approvals totalling $5.6 m, across 6 lenders, median approval $72,000, plus 3 504 approvals worth $1.5 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Fremont, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Fremont borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Fremont. only 5 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 Fremont in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Fremont appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 260818, 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 Fremont figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Newaygo 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 Fremont.
Is zoning published for Fremont?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
