Do SBA loans to Fresno borrowers get paid back?

Is Fresno in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Fresno appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as Fresno, city of, community 060048, carrying Community Rating System class 8, which is a premium discount for exceeding the program minimum. Whether a specific parcel sits in a mapped special flood hazard area is an address level question the platform answers.
Are the county figures on this page Fresno figures?
No, and they are labeled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Fresno County as a whole and there is no place level equivalent. They appear in one clearly marked section as context and are never presented as measurements of Fresno.
Is zoning published for Fresno?
No. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
