Sanborn County, not Letcher
Sanborn County context, not Letcher figures
These are Sanborn County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Letcher measurements.
- Establishments in Sanborn County58
- Employment at those establishments, Sanborn County409
- Covered employment, Sanborn County640
- Average annual pay, Sanborn County$41,586
- Average weekly wage, Sanborn County$800
- Housing units permitted, Sanborn County11
- Of those, single family, Sanborn County11
- County product, 2024, Sanborn County$157,643,000
- County product change over the prior year, Sanborn County-17.1 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Sanborn County$43,472
Every figure in this section is published for Sanborn County as a whole and is not a measurement of Letcher. 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.
- 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.
