Oakland County, not Rochester Hills
Oakland County context, not Rochester Hills figures
These are Oakland County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Rochester Hills measurements.
- Establishments in Oakland County39,792
- Employment at those establishments, Oakland County733,671
- Covered employment, Oakland County723,862
- Average annual pay, Oakland County$77,917
- Average weekly wage, Oakland County$1,498

- County product change over the prior year, Oakland County3.7 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Oakland County$85,214
Every figure in this section is published for Oakland County as a whole and is not a measurement of Rochester Hills. 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.

These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Rochester Hills, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Rochester Hills borrowers get paid back?
Of the 20 loans that have reached a final outcome, 19 were paid in full and 1 charged off, a charge off rate of 5.0 percent. Loans still running are excluded because they have not yet succeeded or failed.
Is Rochester Hills in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Rochester Hills appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 260471, 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 Rochester Hills figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Oakland 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 Rochester Hills.
Is zoning published for Rochester Hills?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
