Delaware County, not Collingdale
Delaware County context, not Collingdale figures
These are Delaware County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Collingdale measurements.
- Establishments in Delaware County13,165
- Employment at those establishments, Delaware County237,233
- Covered employment, Delaware County218,536
- Average annual pay, Delaware County$73,172
- Average weekly wage, Delaware County$1,407
- Housing units permitted, Delaware County281
- Of those, single family, Delaware County267
- County product, 2024, Delaware County$42,607,881,000
- County product change over the prior year, Delaware County3.4 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Delaware County$98,103
Every figure in this section is published for Delaware County as a whole and is not a measurement of Collingdale. 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.

How much SBA lending goes to Collingdale businesses?
12 7(a) approvals totalling $7.7 m, across 9 lenders, median approval $187,200, plus 2 504 approvals worth $2.0 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Collingdale, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Collingdale borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Collingdale. only 3 resolved loans, too few to publish a rate, and a percentage over that few outcomes would move several points on a single loan. The counts are shown instead.
Is Collingdale in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Collingdale appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 420408, 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 Collingdale figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Delaware 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 Collingdale.
Is zoning published for Collingdale?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
