Macon County, not Macon
Macon County context, not Macon figures
These are Macon County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Macon measurements.
- Establishments in Macon County350
- Employment at those establishments, Macon County3,507
- Covered employment, Macon County4,831
- Average annual pay, Macon County$43,944
- Average weekly wage, Macon County$845
- Housing units permitted, Macon County29
- Of those, single family, Macon County10
- County product, 2024, Macon County$749,650,000
- County product change over the prior year, Macon County1.7 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Macon County$48,198
Every figure in this section is published for Macon County as a whole and is not a measurement of Macon. 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.
