This is a small place, and the figures below carry wide margins.
The American Community Survey reaches Plainfield through a sample, not a count, and in a place this size that sample is thin. The population estimate here is 248 with a margin of error of plus or minus 141, which is 56.9 percent of the estimate itself. Every figure whose margin reaches 20 percent is printed with that margin beside it, so you can see the width of each one rather than having to assume it.
Nothing has been removed or adjusted. These are the published federal estimates, shown with the uncertainty the Census publishes alongside them.

Cumberland County, not Plainfield
Cumberland County context, not Plainfield 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 Plainfield 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 Plainfield. 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.
- 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.

Is Plainfield in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Plainfield appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 421147, 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 Plainfield figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Cumberland 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 Plainfield.
Is zoning published for Plainfield?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
