Nottoway County, not Blackstone
Nottoway County context, not Blackstone figures
These are Nottoway County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Blackstone measurements.
- Establishments in Nottoway County299
- Employment at those establishments, Nottoway County2,991
- Covered employment, Nottoway County5,406
- Average annual pay, Nottoway County$52,671
- Average weekly wage, Nottoway County$1,013
- Housing units permitted, Nottoway County57
- Of those, single family, Nottoway County52
- County product, 2024, Nottoway County$700,559,000
- County product change over the prior year, Nottoway County2.1 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Nottoway County$40,669
Every figure in this section is published for Nottoway County as a whole and is not a measurement of Blackstone. 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.
