Prince William County, not Dumfries
Prince William County context, not Dumfries figures
These are Prince William County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Dumfries measurements.
- Establishments in Prince William County9,286
- Employment at those establishments, Prince William County120,091
- Covered employment, Prince William County143,345
- Average annual pay, Prince William County$64,447
- Average weekly wage, Prince William County$1,239
- Housing units permitted, Prince William County1,418
- Of those, single family, Prince William County793
- Average income of an arriving household, Prince William County$77,991
Every figure in this section is published for Prince William County as a whole and is not a measurement of Dumfries. 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.

Do SBA loans to Dumfries borrowers get paid back?

Are the county figures on this page Dumfries figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Prince William 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 Dumfries.
Is zoning published for Dumfries?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
