Pitt County, not Ayden
Pitt County context, not Ayden figures
These are Pitt County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Ayden measurements.

- Employment at those establishments, Pitt County64,563
- Covered employment, Pitt County81,371
- Average annual pay, Pitt County$59,866

- County product change over the prior year, Pitt County6.0 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Pitt County$53,416
Every figure in this section is published for Pitt County as a whole and is not a measurement of Ayden. 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 Ayden borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Ayden. only 1 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 Ayden in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Ayden appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 370189, 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 Ayden figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Pitt 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 Ayden.
Is zoning published for Ayden?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
