Meeker County, not Dassel

Meeker County context, not Dassel figures

These are Meeker County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Dassel measurements.

  • Establishments in Meeker County606
  • Employment at those establishments, Meeker County6,775
  • Covered employment, Meeker County8,042
  • Average annual pay, Meeker County$53,874
  • Average weekly wage, Meeker County$1,036
  • Housing units permitted, Meeker County71
  • Of those, single family, Meeker County66
  • County product, 2024, Meeker County$1,585,742,000
  • County product change over the prior year, Meeker County1.6 percent
  • Average income of an arriving household, Meeker County$67,172

Every figure in this section is published for Meeker County as a whole and is not a measurement of Dassel. 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.
  • 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.
