Chowan County, not Cape Colony
Chowan County context, not Cape Colony figures
These are Chowan County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Cape Colony measurements.
- Establishments in Chowan County372
- Employment at those establishments, Chowan County4,343
- Covered employment, Chowan County5,071
- Average annual pay, Chowan County$49,249
- Average weekly wage, Chowan County$947
- Housing units permitted, Chowan County48
- Of those, single family, Chowan County48
- County product, 2024, Chowan County$723,036,000
- County product change over the prior year, Chowan County0.3 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Chowan County$70,595
Every figure in this section is published for Chowan County as a whole and is not a measurement of Cape Colony. 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.
- No median gross rent is published for this place.
- 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.

They appear in one clearly marked section as context and are never presented as measurements of Cape Colony.
