Clark County, not Ridgefield
Clark County context, not Ridgefield figures
These are Clark County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Ridgefield measurements.
- Establishments in Clark County12,552
- Employment at those establishments, Clark County159,914
- Covered employment, Clark County181,713
- Average annual pay, Clark County$72,700
- Average weekly wage, Clark County$1,398
- Housing units permitted, Clark County3,594
- Of those, single family, Clark County2,201
- County product, 2024, Clark County$33,424,754,000
- County product change over the prior year, Clark County6.5 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Clark County$105,808
Every figure in this section is published for Clark County as a whole and is not a measurement of Ridgefield. 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.
