DeKalb County, not Union Star
DeKalb County context, not Union Star figures
These are DeKalb County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Union Star measurements.
- Establishments in DeKalb County231
- Employment at those establishments, DeKalb County2,181
- Covered employment, DeKalb County2,586
- Average annual pay, DeKalb County$46,221
- Average weekly wage, DeKalb County$889
- Housing units permitted, DeKalb County4
- Of those, single family, DeKalb County4
- County product, 2024, DeKalb County$417,397,000
- County product change over the prior year, DeKalb County-0.5 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, DeKalb County$41,160
Every figure in this section is published for DeKalb County as a whole and is not a measurement of Union Star. 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.
