| Measure | Value | What it means for you |
|---|---|---|

| Construction employment | 1,411 | Everyone working in construction in this county, all trades and office staff. Average pay $1,243 per week. BLS QCEW. |
| Median year homes were built | 1999 | Older stock means more repair, replacement and retrofit work, which is steadier than new build and does not stop in a downturn (Census ACS). |
