Allegheny County, not Duquesne
Allegheny County context, not Duquesne figures
These are Allegheny County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Duquesne measurements.
- Establishments in Allegheny County33,812
- Employment at those establishments, Allegheny County709,774
- Covered employment, Allegheny County670,637
- Average annual pay, Allegheny County$78,297
- Average weekly wage, Allegheny County$1,506
- Housing units permitted, Allegheny County2,999

- County product change over the prior year, Allegheny County4.4 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Allegheny County$88,274
Every figure in this section is published for Allegheny County as a whole and is not a measurement of Duquesne. 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.
- 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 Duquesne in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Duquesne appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 420028, 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 Duquesne figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Allegheny 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 Duquesne.
Is zoning published for Duquesne?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
