Green Lake County, not Princeton
Green Lake County context, not Princeton figures
These are Green Lake County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Princeton measurements.
- Establishments in Green Lake County463
- Employment at those establishments, Green Lake County4,954
- Covered employment, Green Lake County5,899
- Average annual pay, Green Lake County$49,517
- Average weekly wage, Green Lake County$952
- Housing units permitted, Green Lake County70
- Of those, single family, Green Lake County66
- County product, 2024, Green Lake County$904,244,000
- County product change over the prior year, Green Lake County4.5 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Green Lake County$64,572
Every figure in this section is published for Green Lake County as a whole and is not a measurement of Princeton. 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.
