- New businesses do well here. 43% of these loans went to startups or businesses under two years old, against 34% nationally — an unusually open market if you have no trading history.

- Rates run lower here. The median initial rate of 9.00% is 1.25 points below the 10.25% national median, which usually tracks loan size and perceived sector risk rather than geography.
