Ward County, not Kenmare
Ward County context, not Kenmare figures
These are Ward County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Kenmare measurements.
- Establishments in Ward County2,043
- Employment at those establishments, Ward County24,723
- Covered employment, Ward County31,358
- Average annual pay, Ward County$60,491
- Average weekly wage, Ward County$1,163
- Housing units permitted, Ward County130
- Of those, single family, Ward County110
- County product, 2024, Ward County$5,093,673,000
- County product change over the prior year, Ward County3.4 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Ward County$53,833
Every figure in this section is published for Ward County as a whole and is not a measurement of Kenmare. 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.
- This place is not listed as a community in the FEMA Community Status Book, so no NFIP participation or CRS class is shown.
- 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.
