Guilford County, not Forest Oaks
Guilford County context, not Forest Oaks figures
These are Guilford County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Forest Oaks measurements.
- Establishments in Guilford County14,306
- Employment at those establishments, Guilford County265,517
- Covered employment, Guilford County287,996
- Average annual pay, Guilford County$61,546
- Average weekly wage, Guilford County$1,184
- Housing units permitted, Guilford County3,843
- Of those, single family, Guilford County1,440
- County product, 2024, Guilford County$46,944,911,000
- County product change over the prior year, Guilford County5.5 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Guilford County$60,050
Every figure in this section is published for Guilford County as a whole and is not a measurement of Forest Oaks. 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.
