Washington County, not Elco
Washington County context, not Elco figures
These are Washington County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Elco measurements.
- Establishments in Washington County5,340
- Employment at those establishments, Washington County84,410
- Covered employment, Washington County87,434
- Average annual pay, Washington County$72,319
- Average weekly wage, Washington County$1,391
- Housing units permitted, Washington County450
- Of those, single family, Washington County415
- County product, 2024, Washington County$18,671,970,000
- County product change over the prior year, Washington County3.0 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Washington County$78,911
Every figure in this section is published for Washington County as a whole and is not a measurement of Elco. 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 Elco in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Elco appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 420852, 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 Elco figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Washington 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 Elco.
Is zoning published for Elco?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
