Waupaca County, not Iola
Waupaca County context, not Iola figures
These are Waupaca County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Iola measurements.
- Establishments in Waupaca County1,199
- Employment at those establishments, Waupaca County15,170
- Covered employment, Waupaca County18,649
- Average annual pay, Waupaca County$48,246
- Average weekly wage, Waupaca County$928
- Housing units permitted, Waupaca County300
- Of those, single family, Waupaca County125
- County product, 2024, Waupaca County$2,506,755,000
- County product change over the prior year, Waupaca County4.4 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Waupaca County$68,984
Every figure in this section is published for Waupaca County as a whole and is not a measurement of Iola. 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.
