Union County, not Fairview
Union County context, not Fairview figures
These are Union County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Fairview measurements.
- Establishments in Union County5,732
- Employment at those establishments, Union County66,082
- Covered employment, Union County74,299
- Average annual pay, Union County$61,500
- Average weekly wage, Union County$1,183
- Housing units permitted, Union County2,334
- Of those, single family, Union County2,166
- County product, 2024, Union County$13,112,505,000
- County product change over the prior year, Union County7.6 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Union County$108,429
Every figure in this section is published for Union County as a whole and is not a measurement of Fairview. 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 figures are shown. withheld: North Carolina has 2 places named Fairview and the tape records none of their loans in Union County.
- 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 Fairview in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Fairview appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 370024, 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 Fairview figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Union 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 Fairview.
Is zoning published for Fairview?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
