Craven County, not Dover
Craven County context, not Dover figures
These are Craven County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Dover measurements.
- Establishments in Craven County2,224
- Employment at those establishments, Craven County30,858
- Covered employment, Craven County40,890
- Average annual pay, Craven County$55,634
- Average weekly wage, Craven County$1,070
- Housing units permitted, Craven County485
- Of those, single family, Craven County466
- County product, 2024, Craven County$6,912,701,000
- County product change over the prior year, Craven County6.6 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Craven County$62,608
Every figure in this section is published for Craven County as a whole and is not a measurement of Dover. 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.

Do SBA loans to Dover borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Dover. only 0 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 Dover in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Dover appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 370664, 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 Dover figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Craven 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 Dover.
Is zoning published for Dover?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
