Coos County, not Gorham
Coos County context, not Gorham figures
These are Coos County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Gorham measurements.
- Establishments in Coos County809
- Employment at those establishments, Coos County8,380
- Covered employment, Coos County11,886
- Average annual pay, Coos County$53,380
- Average weekly wage, Coos County$1,027
- Housing units permitted, Coos County115
- Of those, single family, Coos County89
- County product, 2024, Coos County$1,816,037,000
- County product change over the prior year, Coos County2.4 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Coos County$79,021
Every figure in this section is published for Coos County as a whole and is not a measurement of Gorham. 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.
