Westmoreland County, not Ligonier
Westmoreland County context, not Ligonier figures
These are Westmoreland County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Ligonier measurements.
- Establishments in Westmoreland County8,428
- Employment at those establishments, Westmoreland County124,843
- Covered employment, Westmoreland County129,350
- Average annual pay, Westmoreland County$56,519
- Average weekly wage, Westmoreland County$1,087
- Housing units permitted, Westmoreland County414
- Of those, single family, Westmoreland County348
- County product, 2024, Westmoreland County$19,387,551,000
- County product change over the prior year, Westmoreland County2.4 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Westmoreland County$65,985
Every figure in this section is published for Westmoreland County as a whole and is not a measurement of Ligonier. 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.
Common questions

1,534, in 823 households. Ligonier borough covers 0.50 square miles of land, which is 3,044 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.

$71,250. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $236,000. Median gross rent is $741 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to Ligonier businesses?
4 7(a) approvals totalling $1.3 m, across 3 lenders, median approval $425,000, plus 1 504 approvals worth $3.6 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Ligonier, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Ligonier borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Ligonier. only 2 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 Ligonier in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Ligonier appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 422180, 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 Ligonier figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Westmoreland 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 Ligonier.
Is zoning published for Ligonier?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
