The average approval of $414,110 sits well above the median of $150,000, so a small number of large deals is pulling the mean up. The median is the better guide to what a typical borrower here actually gets. Only 8.7 percent of approvals run on real estate terms, so SBA credit here is mostly working capital and equipment rather than property acquisition.

SBA 7(a) charge off rate by industry, Nassau County, industries with ten or more resolved loans
NAICSIndustryResolved loansCharged offCharge off rate
722511Full-Service Restaurants18316.7%

Of the 325 loans that have reached a final outcome, 21.8 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 ten resolved loans, Full-Service Restaurants carries the highest charge off rate at 16.7 percent.

Compare against the national and state SBA charge-off rates, computed the same way over resolved loans only.

Coverage

What this page does not hold.

Every item below could be filled with a plausible figure. None of them is. On a page a lender may read, a number that cannot be traced is worse than an absence, so the absences are named.

  • Flood zone record counts are not held. The flood coverage export has not landed, so no count is shown rather than an estimated one.
  • Traffic counts resolve in the platform, not in this dataset, so no AADT figure is printed here.
  • Zoning is in build. Parcel level zoning is not published on this page.

133 Census places lie wholly or partly in Nassau County. 133 carry enough published place level data for a page of their own and are linked. The rest are named here and not linked, because the American Community Survey and the SBA record between them do not carry enough about them to write an honest page. A place existing is itself worth knowing, so nothing in the county is left out.

A further 3,457 SBA approvals in Nassau County are recorded against borrower cities that match no Census place, the largest being New York, Flushing, Jamaica. Those are postal cities and unincorporated areas rather than incorporated places, so no page claims them, and their lending is counted in this county's totals above rather than under any city.
