Sarpy County, not Gretna
Sarpy County context, not Gretna figures
These are Sarpy County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Gretna measurements.

- Employment at those establishments, Sarpy County62,801
- Covered employment, Sarpy County80,883
- Average annual pay, Sarpy County$58,661

- Average income of an arriving household, Sarpy County$71,487
Every figure in this section is published for Sarpy County as a whole and is not a measurement of Gretna. 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.

These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Gretna, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Gretna borrowers get paid back?

Are the county figures on this page Gretna figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Sarpy County as a whole and there is no place level equivalent. They appear in one clearly marked section as context and are never presented as measurements of Gretna.
Is zoning published for Gretna?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
