Residential construction is an economic generator for the local economy, and this is how we contributed last month.
In the month of October, permits for 193 residential units were issued in Flagler County.
It is estimated those homes will generate $39.2 million in local income including local business owner revenues of $11.6 million, support 654 local jobs and $27.6 million in local wages and salaries and the collection of $7.2 million in taxes and fees.
For 2022, permits for 2420 new homes were issued in Flagler County.
In 2022 single family residential construction has generated $491 million in local income, local business owner revenues of $145.7 million, supported 8204 local jobs and $345.6 million in local wages and salaries and the collection of $90 million in taxes and fees.
