Yellow Medicine County, not Porter
Yellow Medicine County context, not Porter figures
These are Yellow Medicine County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Porter measurements.
- Establishments in Yellow Medicine County324
- Employment at those establishments, Yellow Medicine County3,603
- Covered employment, Yellow Medicine County3,621
- Average annual pay, Yellow Medicine County$49,625
- Average weekly wage, Yellow Medicine County$954
- Housing units permitted, Yellow Medicine County39
- Of those, single family, Yellow Medicine County39
- County product, 2024, Yellow Medicine County$784,224,000
- County product change over the prior year, Yellow Medicine County-2.1 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Yellow Medicine County$47,324
Every figure in this section is published for Yellow Medicine County as a whole and is not a measurement of Porter. 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.
