Chapter 3. Affected Environment and Environmental Consequences co-owner lives in the unit even if it is mortgaged or not fully paid for. The median value(s) of housing units reflects housing units with and without a mortgage. A household includes all the people who occupy a housing unit as their usual place of residence. Table 50. Household characteristics, 2010 County Total Housing Units Occupied Housing Units/Total Households Owner Occupied Housing Units Median Value of Housing Units* Median Household Income Cibola 11,101 8,860 6,575 $80,300 $34,916 McKinley 25,813 21,968 15,722 $77,000 $30,403 New Mexico 901,388 791,395 542,122 $163,300 $43,569 Source: U.S. Census Bureau, 2010 *with and without a mortgage **In 2010 inflation-adjusted dollars Total Industry Compensation What is often termed in economic data as total industry compensation is somewhat of a misnomer, in that a portion of the “industry earnings” stems from government related activity. This will be made clear when the composition of industry compensation is presented. Nevertheless, total industry compensation provides a good picture of the relative sizes of market- related economic activity, or business activity, performed in the various counties (table 51). McKinley County clearly dominates economic activity, with employee compensation figures roughly twice those of Cibola County. Table 51. Total compensation of employees (in $1,000s) County 2001 2005 2010 Cibola 208,477 325,969 367,025 McKinley Source: USDOC, 2012 742,349 866,334 989,988 Income is generated by economic activity in the local area counties through a variety of sectors, including various types of business as well as government. This income is not always received by a person in the county, for a person from neighboring counties may commute across county lines to go to work. The employee compensation by industry, however, is a measure of economic activity generated in the counties, regardless of where the employee resides. Compensation for work is broader than salaries and wages. Total compensation also includes employer contributions for employee retirement funds, social security, health insurance, and life insurance. These supplements to income comprise roughly 20 percent of total compensation. Also, rather than measuring per capita personal income, which includes government transfers to people who are not employed, total compensation measures are presented “per job,” meaning in terms of full-time and part-time wage and salary employment. So total average compensation per 284 DEIS for Roca Honda Mine, Cibola National Forest
Chapter 3. Affected Environment and Environmental Consequences job is the compensation of employees received divided by total full-time and part-time wage and salary employment. The local area counties display a variety of business activity. The sources of economic activity in the two counties are individually discussed below. Cibola County: Compensation by Industry As can be seen in table 52, government and government services account for a total of $163,863 of the annual compensation of employees in 2010. Sky City Casino is the largest employer in Cibola County, contributing more than $12 million annually to the State (due to a compact agreement) and employing 500 people from the local area; supplemented by Casino Express and Dancing Eagle Casino in Casa Blanca. The Grants Cibola County School District is also a main employer in the county. Table 52.
