Ashtabula County, not Orwell
Ashtabula County context, not Orwell figures
These are Ashtabula County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Orwell measurements.
- Establishments in Ashtabula County1,843
- Employment at those establishments, Ashtabula County24,616
- Covered employment, Ashtabula County29,406
- Average annual pay, Ashtabula County$47,141
- Average weekly wage, Ashtabula County$907
- Housing units permitted, Ashtabula County155
- Of those, single family, Ashtabula County140
- County product, 2024, Ashtabula County$4,396,048,000
- County product change over the prior year, Ashtabula County5.8 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Ashtabula County$55,432
Every figure in this section is published for Ashtabula County as a whole and is not a measurement of Orwell. 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.
Common questions

1,707, in 751 households. Orwell village covers 1.92 square miles of land, which is 889 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.

How much SBA lending goes to Orwell businesses?
17 7(a) approvals totalling $2.0 m, across 3 lenders, median approval $50,000. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Orwell, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Orwell borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Orwell. only 3 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.
Are the county figures on this page Orwell figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Ashtabula 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 Orwell.
Is zoning published for Orwell?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
