Jackson County, not Forest Hills
Jackson County context, not Forest Hills figures
These are Jackson 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 Hills measurements.
- Establishments in Jackson County1,113
- Employment at those establishments, Jackson County13,583
- Covered employment, Jackson County14,477
- Average annual pay, Jackson County$48,540
- Average weekly wage, Jackson County$933
- Housing units permitted, Jackson County254
- Of those, single family, Jackson County254
- County product, 2024, Jackson County$2,187,698,000
- County product change over the prior year, Jackson County4.2 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Jackson County$75,298
Every figure in this section is published for Jackson County as a whole and is not a measurement of Forest Hills. 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.
- No median owner-occupied home value 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.

Is Forest Hills in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Forest Hills appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 370248, 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.

No, and they are labelled so.

They appear in one clearly marked section as context and are never presented as measurements of Forest Hills.
Is zoning published for Forest Hills?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
