Manitowoc County, not Manitowoc
Manitowoc County context, not Manitowoc figures
These are Manitowoc County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Manitowoc measurements.
- Establishments in Manitowoc County1,726
- Employment at those establishments, Manitowoc County28,889
- Covered employment, Manitowoc County33,444
- Average annual pay, Manitowoc County$53,550
- Average weekly wage, Manitowoc County$1,030
- Housing units permitted, Manitowoc County112
- Of those, single family, Manitowoc County96
- County product, 2024, Manitowoc County$5,402,244,000
- County product change over the prior year, Manitowoc County4.7 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Manitowoc County$56,771
Every figure in this section is published for Manitowoc County as a whole and is not a measurement of Manitowoc. 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.

These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Manitowoc, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Manitowoc borrowers get paid back?
Of the 21 loans that have reached a final outcome, 20 were paid in full and 1 charged off, a charge off rate of 4.8 percent. Loans still running are excluded because they have not yet succeeded or failed.
Are the county figures on this page Manitowoc figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Manitowoc 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 Manitowoc.
Is zoning published for Manitowoc?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
