Summit County, not Portage Lakes

Summit County context, not Portage Lakes figures

These are Summit County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Portage Lakes measurements.

  • Establishments in Summit County13,309
  • Employment at those establishments, Summit County249,827
  • Covered employment, Summit County261,045
  • Average annual pay, Summit County$62,871
  • Average weekly wage, Summit County$1,209
  • Housing units permitted, Summit County1,082
  • Of those, single family, Summit County580
  • County product, 2024, Summit County$40,349,074,000
  • County product change over the prior year, Summit County4.3 percent
  • Average income of an arriving household, Summit County$97,249

Every figure in this section is published for Summit County as a whole and is not a measurement of Portage Lakes. 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 approvals are recorded to a borrower address in this place in either FOIA release.
  • 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.
