Red River County, not Detroit
Red River County context, not Detroit figures
These are Red River County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Detroit measurements.
- Establishments in Red River County192
- Employment at those establishments, Red River County1,674
- Covered employment, Red River County2,668
- Average annual pay, Red River County$44,334
- Average weekly wage, Red River County$853
- Housing units permitted, Red River County12
- Of those, single family, Red River County12
- County product, 2024, Red River County$441,771,000
- County product change over the prior year, Red River County1.1 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Red River County$50,808
Every figure in this section is published for Red River County as a whole and is not a measurement of Detroit. 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.

$47,500. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $94,500. Median gross rent is $540 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
Is Detroit in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Detroit appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as community 480985, 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 Detroit figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Red River 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 Detroit.
Is zoning published for Detroit?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
