Cumberland County, not Messiah College

Cumberland County context, not Messiah College figures

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

  • Establishments in Cumberland County6,534
  • Employment at those establishments, Cumberland County131,167
  • Covered employment, Cumberland County137,668
  • Average annual pay, Cumberland County$65,149
  • Average weekly wage, Cumberland County$1,253
  • Housing units permitted, Cumberland County1,037
  • Of those, single family, Cumberland County729
  • County product, 2024, Cumberland County$23,098,142,000
  • County product change over the prior year, Cumberland County6.0 percent
  • Average income of an arriving household, Cumberland County$66,948

Every figure in this section is published for Cumberland County as a whole and is not a measurement of Messiah College. 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.
  • The American Community Survey does not publish a median household income for this place, which happens where the sample is too small to support one.
  • No median owner-occupied home value is published for this place.
  • No median gross rent is published for this place.
  • 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.
