Cape May County, not South Dennis
Cape May County context, not South Dennis figures
These are Cape May County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as South Dennis measurements.
- Establishments in Cape May County3,816
- Employment at those establishments, Cape May County28,065
- Covered employment, Cape May County42,713
- Average annual pay, Cape May County$48,574
- Average weekly wage, Cape May County$934
- Housing units permitted, Cape May County895

- County product change over the prior year, Cape May County5.2 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Cape May County$141,294
Every figure in this section is published for Cape May County as a whole and is not a measurement of South Dennis. 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.
