Lancaster County, not Leola
Lancaster County context, not Leola figures
These are Lancaster County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Leola measurements.
- Establishments in Lancaster County13,776
- Employment at those establishments, Lancaster County249,379
- Covered employment, Lancaster County252,045
- Average annual pay, Lancaster County$59,966
- Average weekly wage, Lancaster County$1,153
- Housing units permitted, Lancaster County1,184
- Of those, single family, Lancaster County755
- County product, 2024, Lancaster County$39,951,127,000
- County product change over the prior year, Lancaster County5.1 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Lancaster County$71,303
Every figure in this section is published for Lancaster County as a whole and is not a measurement of Leola. 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.
- 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.
