Burlington County, not Burlington
Burlington County context, not Burlington figures
These are Burlington County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Burlington measurements.
- Establishments in Burlington County10,703
- Employment at those establishments, Burlington County199,706
- Covered employment, Burlington County211,549
- Average annual pay, Burlington County$70,647
- Average weekly wage, Burlington County$1,359
- Housing units permitted, Burlington County2,154
- Of those, single family, Burlington County1,063
- County product, 2024, Burlington County$40,867,224,000
- County product change over the prior year, Burlington County4.9 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Burlington County$83,320
Every figure in this section is published for Burlington County as a whole and is not a measurement of Burlington. 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.

54 7(a) approvals totalling $23.2 m, across 18 lenders, median approval $100,000, plus 7 504 approvals worth $12.0 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Burlington, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Burlington borrowers get paid back?

Are the county figures on this page Burlington figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Burlington 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 Burlington.
Is zoning published for Burlington?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
