Monroe County, not Union
Monroe County context, not Union figures
These are Monroe County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Union measurements.
- Establishments in Monroe County171
- Employment at those establishments, Monroe County1,184
- Covered employment, Monroe County2,046
- Average annual pay, Monroe County$47,016
- Average weekly wage, Monroe County$904
- Housing units permitted, Monroe County0
- Of those, single family, Monroe County0
- County product, 2024, Monroe County$309,408,000
- County product change over the prior year, Monroe County8.1 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Monroe County$53,113
Every figure in this section is published for Monroe County as a whole and is not a measurement of Union. 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.

They appear in one clearly marked section as context and are never presented as measurements of Union.
Is zoning published for Union?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
