Antelope County, not Elgin
Antelope County context, not Elgin figures
These are Antelope County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Elgin measurements.
- Establishments in Antelope County218
- Employment at those establishments, Antelope County1,523
- Covered employment, Antelope County2,194
- Average annual pay, Antelope County$47,726
- Average weekly wage, Antelope County$918
- Housing units permitted, Antelope County17
- Of those, single family, Antelope County15
- County product, 2024, Antelope County$776,573,000
- County product change over the prior year, Antelope County-8.2 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Antelope County$50,181
Every figure in this section is published for Antelope County as a whole and is not a measurement of Elgin. 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.
