Cayuga County, not Auburn
Cayuga County context, not Auburn figures
These are Cayuga County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Auburn measurements.
- Establishments in Cayuga County1,509
- Employment at those establishments, Cayuga County17,820
- Covered employment, Cayuga County24,605
- Average annual pay, Cayuga County$62,623
- Average weekly wage, Cayuga County$1,204
- Housing units permitted, Cayuga County110
- Of those, single family, Cayuga County92
- County product, 2024, Cayuga County$4,062,578,000
- County product change over the prior year, Cayuga County6.0 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Cayuga County$54,917
Every figure in this section is published for Cayuga County as a whole and is not a measurement of Auburn. 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.
- 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.

How many people live in Auburn, New York?
26,285, in 11,875 households. Auburn city covers 8.34 square miles of land, which is 3,153 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.

How much SBA lending goes to Auburn businesses?
31 7(a) approvals totalling $6.8 m, across 11 lenders, median approval $50,000, plus 8 504 approvals worth $6.3 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Auburn, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Auburn borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Auburn. only 5 resolved loans, too few to publish a rate, and a percentage over that few outcomes would move several points on a single loan. The counts are shown instead.
Is Auburn in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Auburn appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 360102, with no Community Rating System class, so no CRS discount applies. Whether a specific parcel sits in a mapped special flood hazard area is an address level question the platform answers.
Are the county figures on this page Auburn figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Cayuga 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 Auburn.
Is zoning published for Auburn?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
