Comparative Demographic Overview
With nearly 5.3 million residents in 2006, the Washington, D.C. metropolitan statistical area represented a sizable and diverse market. The
disproportionately large working-age population and the high income in the metropolitan area supports a dynamic and prosperous economy. In 2006,
Loudoun County ranked second in the United States for median household income. Loudoun's growing Hispanic population, now at 9.7 percent of the
population, represents a lower share of the population than in the metropolitan area but higher than in the Commonwealth of Virginia.

• Per capita income is derived by dividing the total personal income by the total
population, where personal income is the sum of wages and salaries, other labor income,
proprietors' income, rental income of persons, dividend income, personal interest income,
and transfer payments less personal contributions for social insurance.
• Median household income is a middle figure, it divides households into two groups, with
half of all households earning more than the median income and half of all households
earning less.
Because children do not earn income, jurisdictions with higher concentrations of children
will have lower per capita incomes. Loudoun County's population of residents 19 years of
age and younger is over 30 percent, causing Loudoun's per capita income to be lower than
jurisdictions where the population of children is lower.

• Adjusted gross income (AGI) is gathered from income tax returns. AGI is income from
taxable sources (wages and salaries, interest, dividends, and rents and royalties) minus
allowable adjustments, but not including standards and itemized deductions.
Income trends reflect the standard of living that people can afford and the extent to which
living standards vary from person to person. Income statistics are useful in determining
the volume and nature of the goods and services that a population is likely to consume.
The distribution of income within (and between) jurisdictions provides a way to describe the
diversity of the population within the area and across the region as a whole.

Married Couple Median Adjusted Gross Income, 2004-2005
Adjusted gross income (AGI) is gathered from income tax returns. AGI is income from taxable sources (wages and salaries, interest, dividends, and rents and
royalties) minus allowable adjustments, but not including standards and itemized deductions. Although 2007 figures are not yet available, AGI data are useful
because they represent actual figures rather than survey estimates. Among counties in Virginia, Loudoun had the highest married couple median in 2005, and
ranked second behind Falls Church City among all jurisdictions in Virginia.

The labor force is a significant indicator of the economic and social condition of a
community. It defines the supply and demand for employment, and the strength of the
businesses that support that demand. From this information, conclusions can be drawn
about the availability of jobs, the social climate of the area, and the standards of living.
In analyzing the status of a community’s labor force, the following definitions may be
helpful:
• Civilian labor force includes all county residents, 16 and older, who are either working or
looking for work.
• Unemployment number refers to people who had no employment, but were actively
seeking work.
• Unemployment rate is equal to unemployment divided by labor force.

Employment Trends and Forecasts. . . . . . . .
The employment, establishment, and wage information provided here is compiled from the
Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW), formally known as ES202. QCEW
is a Federal/State cooperative program that collects and compiles employment and wage
data for workers covered by State unemployment insurance (UI) laws, and Federal civilian
workers covered by Unemployment Compensation for Federal Employees. This data
excludes proprietors, the self-employed, unpaid family members, and certain farm and
domestic workers. The following are additional definitions that may be helpful when
analyzing this data: Trends in Employment by NAICS. . . . . . . . . .
• At-place employment is the number of workers covered by state unemployment
insurance at the cited establishment in Loudoun County.
• An establishment is an economic unit such as a farm, factory, store, or mine that
produces goods or provides services. It is usually at a single physical location and engaged
in one predominant type of economic activity. A business may have more than one
establishment.
In Northern Virginia, Loudoun County ranks third in employment, and is forecasted to add the
second-highest number of jobs of all Northern Virginia counties for each of the decades
between 2000 and 2030.

diversity has allowed the county to maintain stability when certain industries experience a
slow down, or when the overall economy dips. Transportation and technology-related
businesses, including AOL, United Airlines, and Orbital Sciences Corporation comprise a
significant share of Loudoun's employment.

During the downturn in the national economy from 2000 through 2002, the county's job growth slowed; however, the county never had an overall net loss of jobs.
The diversity of employment in Loudoun has allowed the county to maintain stability when certain industries, or the economy in general, have experienced a
slow down. The mix of employment has remained relatively constant over the past 10 years; however, the Information sector grew significantly in its share, from
2 percent to over 6 percent. Also, while the Transportation & Warehousing sector lost some of its share, decreasing from over 13 percent in 1997 to 7 percent
in 2007, it increased in absolute number during the same time period.

Section F - Residential Development
The high quality of life available in Loudoun County makes it a desirable place to live. The
many amenities, prosperous businesses, planned communities, and access to the
Washington, D.C. metropolitan area have all contributed to population growth, and thus,
the residential development in the county. From 1997 through 2007, over 55,000
residential building permits were issued in Loudoun.
Some of the local data presented in this section are presented by planning subarea.
Loudoun originally defined ten geographical regions to identify service delivery areas and
as a guide to the placement of new capital facilities. These subareas are used to forecast
long range trends and needs, and more generally for subcounty analysis. A map showing
the location of these planning subareas is provided in Section I.

Ashby Ponds's construction will be tracked in Tables F-6 and F-7 and its population will be included in Table A-1.
(b) This table provides staff's best estimates of development, based on the approval documents (for "Total Approved Units"), building permits issued, and data in the county's geographic information
system. "Units Remaining to be Permitted" generally reflects the difference between the total approved units and those permitted through January 1, 2008. However, some projects have flexible "up to"
totals by unit type, and some units considered single-family attached for the purpose of this document may be listed as multi-family on the approval document. Also, some projects are completed with fewer
units than originally approved. Data in the "Units Remaining to be Permitted" and "Percent Complete" sections have been adjusted to reflect these factors.

Number of New Units Permitted
Source: U.S. Census Bureau, except Arlington, Loudoun, and Spotsylvania counties directly from jurisdictions.
The number of new residential units permitted in Northern Virginia dropped in 2007, reflecting the overall regional and national slowing in new residential
construction. Loudoun County's share of total residential permits in 2007 comprised just over a quarter of the Northern Virginia region's total residential
permits.

In 1990, Loudoun County had 13 million square feet of nonresidential space, compared to
the current inventory of over 65.3 million square feet. In 2007, 4.3 million square feet of
nonresidential construction were permitted. The nonresidential vacancy rate rose slightly
from 12.7 percent in 2006 to 13.9 percent in 2007.

Loudoun has a higher percentage of Flex and Industrial space than other Northern
Virginia jurisdictions as a result of the demand of businesses supporting Washington
Dulles International Airport. Loudoun County accounts for over 12 percent of the
Northern Virginia region's rentable commercial and industrial space.
Some of the local data presented in this section are presented by planning subarea.
Loudoun originally defined ten geographical regions to identify service delivery areas and
as a guide to the placement of new capital facilities. These subareas are used to forecast
long range trends and needs, and more generally for subcounty analysis. A map showing
the location of these planning subareas is provided in Section I.

Section G - Nonresidential Development
Successful business development increases the county's capacity to generate
employment opportunities and broadens the county's tax base. A key factor in this
success is having a diverse portfolio of sites where businesses can locate. Analyzing
local and regional real estate trends can provide useful indicators about both the market
demand and the area's economy.

(1) Square footage generally is an estimate of the maximum amount of retail development allowed, based on the approved land uses (i.e., office, industrial, and retail) and approved project
square footage. Projects may have alternate uses approved at a later date that alter the total retail square footage.
(2) This table provides staff's best estimate of development based on approval documents, building permits issued, and assessment data. For the purposes of this table, total approved retail
square footage is based on the approval document. In the existing column, both existing and permitted square footage through January 1, 2008 are shown. This existing square footage
includes uses that may be classified as "other" on Tables G-1 through G-3.

Commercial and Industrial Space -- Northern Virginia
Total commercial and industrial space in Northern Virginia totaled over 260 million square feet in 2007. More than 12 percent of the region's rentable
building area was located in Loudoun County in 2007. Because Loudoun is home to Washington Dulles International Airport, the county contains a
higher percentage of flex and industrial space than other Northern Virginia jurisdictions.

Section H - Rezoning Activity
Some of the local data presented in this section are presented by planning subarea.
Loudoun originally defined ten geographical regions to identify service delivery areas and
as a guide to the placement of new capital facilities. These subareas are used to forecast
long range trends and needs, and more generally for subcounty analysis. A map showing
the location of these planning subareas is provided in Section I.
Rezoning Applications
Approved . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
All land in Loudoun County is divided into zoning districts as defined by the zoning
ordinances. The regulations of the zoning ordinances specify the permitted uses, the size
of buildings, the required yards, the required off-street parking, and other standards for
land use within each zoning district.
A rezoning is the process outlined in the zoning ordinance by which an applicant can
request a change in the zoning district, including the associated regulations that apply to
the applicant's land.
In 2007, Loudoun County Board of Supervisors approved twenty rezoning applications.
The rezoned projects will permit the construction of over 6,100 additional housing units and
result in a reduction in the maximum amount of nonresidential space that can be
developed of 8.5 million square feet.

The maps in this section are provided as reference. The following definitions may be
helpful:
Planning Subarea: Loudoun originally defined ten geographical regions to identify service
delivery areas and as a guide to the placement of new capital facilities. These subareas
are used to forecast long range trends and needs, and more generally for subcounty
analysis.
Office and Industrial Corridor: There are six distinct office and industrial corridors in
Loudoun County. Each corridor has unique characteristics for businesses. The corridors
are: Route 7 (office and research uses); Route 28 (office, business uses, and destination
retail); Route 625 (office and business uses); Route 606 (industrial uses); Route 50
(business uses and heavy industrial); and Route 627, or the Greenway (high density and
high end office).

The disproportionately large working-age population and the high income in the metropolitan area supports a dynamic and prosperous economy. In 2006, Loudoun County ranked second in the United States for median household income. Loudoun's growing Hispanic population, now at 9.7 percent of the population, represents a lower share of the population than in the metropolitan area but higher than in the Commonwealth of Virginia.

Because children do not earn income, jurisdictions with higher concentrations of children will have lower per capita incomes. Loudoun County's population of residents 19 years of age and younger is over 30 percent, causing Loudoun's per capita income to be lower than jurisdictions where the population of children is lower.

AGI is income from taxable sources (wages and salaries, interest, dividends, and rents and royalties) minus allowable adjustments, but not including standards and itemized deductions. Income trends reflect the standard of living that people can afford and the extent to which living standards vary from person to person. Income statistics are useful in determining the volume and nature of the goods and services that a population is likely to consume. The distribution of income within (and between) jurisdictions provides a way to describe the diversity of the population within the area and across the region as a whole.

During the downturn in the national economy from 2000 through 2002, the county's job growth slowed; however, the county never had an overall net loss of jobs. The diversity of employment in Loudoun has allowed the county to maintain stability when certain industries, or the economy in general, have experienced a slow down. The mix of employment has remained relatively constant over the past 10 years; however, the Information sector grew significantly in its share, from 2 percent to over 6 percent. Also, while the Transportation & Warehousing sector lost some of its share, decreasing from over 13 percent in 1997 to 7 percent in 2007, it increased in absolute number during the same time period.

(b) This table provides staff's best estimates of development, based on the approval documents (for "Total Approved Units"), building permits issued, and data in the county's geographic information system. "Units Remaining to be Permitted" generally reflects the difference between the total approved units and those permitted through January 1, 2008. However, some projects have flexible "up to" totals by unit type, and some units considered single-family attached for the purpose of this document may be listed as multi-family on the approval document. Also, some projects are completed with fewer units than originally approved. Data in the "Units Remaining to be Permitted" and "Percent Complete" sections have been adjusted to reflect these factors.

    In this Section: LoudounCounty H-1 79 H-2 81 Section H - Rezoning Activity Some of the local data presented in this section are presented by planning subarea. Loudoun originally defined ten geographical regions to identify service delivery areas and as a guide to the placement of new capital facilities. These subareas are used to forecast long range trends and needs, and more generally for subcounty analysis. A map showing the location of these planning subareas is provided in Section I. Rezoning Applications Approved . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . All land in Loudoun County is divided into zoning districts as defined by the zoning ordinances. The regulations of the zoning ordinances specify the permitted uses, the size of buildings, the required yards, the required off-street parking, and other standards for land use within each zoning district. A rezoning is the process outlined in the zoning ordinance by which an applicant can request a change in the zoning district, including the associated regulations that apply to the applicant's land. In 2007, Loudoun County Board of Supervisors approved twenty rezoning applications. The rezoned projects will permit the construction of over 6,100 additional housing units and result in a reduction in the maximum amount of nonresidential space that can be developed of 8.5 million square feet.
