Walworth County, not Delavan
Walworth County context, not Delavan figures
These are Walworth County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Delavan measurements.
- Establishments in Walworth County2,829
- Employment at those establishments, Walworth County39,077
- Covered employment, Walworth County45,268
- Average annual pay, Walworth County$50,949
- Average weekly wage, Walworth County$980
- Housing units permitted, Walworth County477
- Of those, single family, Walworth County378
- County product, 2024, Walworth County$6,422,650,000
- County product change over the prior year, Walworth County4.6 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Walworth County$105,831
Every figure in this section is published for Walworth County as a whole and is not a measurement of Delavan. 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 Delavan borrowers get paid back?

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