Person County, not Roxboro
Person County context, not Roxboro figures
These are Person County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Roxboro measurements.
- Establishments in Person County725
- Employment at those establishments, Person County8,458
- Covered employment, Person County9,288
- Average annual pay, Person County$50,063
- Average weekly wage, Person County$963

- County product change over the prior year, Person County10.5 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Person County$57,640
Every figure in this section is published for Person County as a whole and is not a measurement of Roxboro. 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.

These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Roxboro, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Roxboro borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Roxboro. only 2 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 Roxboro in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Roxboro appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 370347, 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 Roxboro figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Person 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 Roxboro.
Is zoning published for Roxboro?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
