What these figures carry
- A headcount, not a full-time equivalent. One part-time position is not one full-time position and Schedule 80A does not say what fraction it is.
- Funded positions as filed, which is an establishment count rather than people employed on a given day.
Highlands East
- 1 of the three columns were left blank in this filing and are treated as nothing filed, not as zero positions.
The order changes with the basis. Which of these populations is the right divisor is not a technical detail: the tax base is properties, the services are used by whoever is present, and roughly 54% of the dwellings in this county are not occupied by permanent residents. No source states how much of the year a seasonal dwelling is occupied, so this atlas will not choose for you.
Which way is better
Contested. What a council pays itself is a judgement for the electorate, not an index. Nothing on this page is ranked, and the bars are ordered by size rather than by merit.
