How much SBA lending goes to Vancouver businesses?
543 7(a) approvals totaling $285.6 m since FY2020, across 66 lenders, median approval $150,000, plus 117 504 approvals worth $125.1 m since FY2010. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Vancouver, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Vancouver borrowers get paid back?
Of the 95 loans that have reached a final outcome, 85 were paid in full and 10 charged off, a charge off rate of 10.5 percent. Loans still running are excluded because they have not yet succeeded or failed.
Is Vancouver in the National Flood Insurance Program?
Yes. Vancouver appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as Vancouver, city of, community 530027, with no Community Rating System class, so no CRS discount applies. 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 Vancouver figures?
No, and they are labeled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Clark 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 Vancouver.
Is zoning published for Vancouver?
No. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
