Mahoning County, not Youngstown
Mahoning County context, not Youngstown figures
These are Mahoning County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Youngstown measurements.
- Establishments in Mahoning County5,391
- Employment at those establishments, Mahoning County83,444
- Covered employment, Mahoning County93,784
- Average annual pay, Mahoning County$51,623
- Average weekly wage, Mahoning County$993
- Housing units permitted, Mahoning County147
- Of those, single family, Mahoning County138
- County product, 2024, Mahoning County$12,615,309,000
- County product change over the prior year, Mahoning County4.3 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Mahoning County$50,285
Every figure in this section is published for Mahoning County as a whole and is not a measurement of Youngstown. 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.
Common questions
Youngstown questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Youngstown, Ohio?
59,331, in 24,982 households. Youngstown city covers 33.93 square miles of land, which is 1,749 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is Youngstown in?
Mahoning County, which holds 98.4 percent of the place by area. Source: US Census Bureau, cartographic boundary file, places, 2024 vintage.
What is the median household income in Youngstown?
$34,408. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $63,300. Median gross rent is $728 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to Youngstown businesses?
236 7(a) approvals totalling $92.6 m, across 30 lenders, median approval $100,000, plus 24 504 approvals worth $16.7 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Youngstown, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Youngstown borrowers get paid back?
Of the 32 loans that have reached a final outcome, 29 were paid in full and 3 charged off, a charge off rate of 9.4 percent. Loans still running are excluded because they have not yet succeeded or failed.
Is Youngstown in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Youngstown appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 390373, 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 Youngstown figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Mahoning 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 Youngstown.
Is zoning published for Youngstown?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
