This is a small place, and the figures below carry wide margins.
The American Community Survey reaches Solway through a sample, not a count, and in a place this size that sample is thin. The population estimate here is 117 with a margin of error of plus or minus 106, which is 90.6 percent of the estimate itself. Every figure whose margin reaches 20 percent is printed with that margin beside it, so you can see the width of each one rather than having to assume it.
Nothing has been removed or adjusted. These are the published federal estimates, shown with the uncertainty the Census publishes alongside them.

Beltrami County, not Solway
Beltrami County context, not Solway figures
These are Beltrami County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Solway measurements.
- Establishments in Beltrami County1,250
- Employment at those establishments, Beltrami County16,073
- Covered employment, Beltrami County20,746
- Average annual pay, Beltrami County$54,299
- Average weekly wage, Beltrami County$1,044
- Housing units permitted, Beltrami County156
- Of those, single family, Beltrami County63
- County product, 2024, Beltrami County$2,519,091,000
- County product change over the prior year, Beltrami County5.0 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Beltrami County$59,623
Every figure in this section is published for Beltrami County as a whole and is not a measurement of Solway. 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.
- No median gross rent is published for this place.
- 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 Solway businesses?
9 7(a) approvals totalling $1.2 m, across 2 lenders, median approval $110,000. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Solway, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Solway borrowers get paid back?

Are the county figures on this page Solway figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Beltrami 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 Solway.
Is zoning published for Solway?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
