Monmouth County, not Fair Haven
Monmouth County context, not Fair Haven figures
These are Monmouth County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Fair Haven measurements.
- Establishments in Monmouth County19,883
- Employment at those establishments, Monmouth County257,734
- Covered employment, Monmouth County274,000
- Average annual pay, Monmouth County$70,560
- Average weekly wage, Monmouth County$1,357
- Housing units permitted, Monmouth County2,782
- Of those, single family, Monmouth County2,151
- County product, 2024, Monmouth County$52,693,317,000
- County product change over the prior year, Monmouth County5.3 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Monmouth County$138,672
Every figure in this section is published for Monmouth County as a whole and is not a measurement of Fair Haven. 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.
