Tompkins County, not Dryden
Tompkins County context, not Dryden figures
These are Tompkins County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Dryden measurements.
- Establishments in Tompkins County2,230
- Employment at those establishments, Tompkins County50,869
- Covered employment, Tompkins County48,051
- Average annual pay, Tompkins County$69,770
- Average weekly wage, Tompkins County$1,342
- Housing units permitted, Tompkins County337

- County product, 2024, Tompkins County$7,966,282,000
- County product change over the prior year, Tompkins County6.1 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Tompkins County$70,441
Every figure in this section is published for Tompkins County as a whole and is not a measurement of Dryden. 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.
Common questions

How many people live in Dryden, New York?
1,671, in 912 households. Dryden village covers 1.76 square miles of land, which is 951 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.

$50,435. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $230,900. Median gross rent is $870 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to Dryden businesses?
8 7(a) approvals totalling $4.3 m, across 4 lenders, median approval $72,000. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Dryden, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Dryden borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Dryden. only 1 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 Dryden in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Dryden appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 360846, 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 Dryden figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Tompkins 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 Dryden.
Is zoning published for Dryden?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
