Sunflower County, not Moorhead
Sunflower County context, not Moorhead figures
These are Sunflower County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Moorhead measurements.
- Establishments in Sunflower County406
- Employment at those establishments, Sunflower County6,028
- Covered employment, Sunflower County8,222
- Average annual pay, Sunflower County$41,018
- Average weekly wage, Sunflower County$789
- Housing units permitted, Sunflower County6
- Of those, single family, Sunflower County6
- County product, 2024, Sunflower County$862,676,000
- County product change over the prior year, Sunflower County-8.6 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Sunflower County$28,201
Every figure in this section is published for Sunflower County as a whole and is not a measurement of Moorhead. 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.
- No SBA approvals are recorded to a borrower address in this place in either FOIA release.
- 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.
