How many businesses are in Los Angeles County?
- Establishments, all industries304,988
- Employment at those establishments3,987,736
- Annual payroll$299.62 bn
- Establishments per 1,000 residents31.1
These are counts of establishments physically operating in the county, not listings, so they are the supply side a feasibility study measures demand against. County Business Patterns counts private establishments with paid employees in March 2023, while the Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages above counts every unemployment-insured employer, public ones included, as a 2024 annual average, so the two establishment and employment counts differ.

The average approval of $632,197 sits well above the median of $250,000, pulled up by a few larger deals, so the median is the better guide to what a typical borrower here gets. Only 20.6 percent of approvals run on real estate terms, so SBA credit here is mostly working capital and equipment rather than property acquisition.

Of the 2,555 loans that have reached a final outcome, 12.1 percent were charged off. This is computed only over resolved loans, because a loan still running has not yet succeeded or failed and counting it either way would be wrong. Among industries with at least 30 resolved loans, Women's, Children's, and Infants' Clothing and Accessories Merchant Wholesalers carries the highest charge-off rate at 21.1 percent.
Compare against the national and state SBA charge-off rates, computed the same way over resolved loans only.

A further 2,670 of the county's 13,224 SBA 7(a) approvals are to borrowers in cities that match no Census place in Los Angeles County, the largest being Van Nuys (232), North Hollywood (232), Woodland Hills (165). Those are postal cities, unincorporated areas and cities outside the county, so no place row claims them; they are counted in the county total above.
