How we built this

We download the CFPB's public loan application register for every state, keep only applications the lender acted on (originated, approved-not-accepted, denied, withdrawn, or closed for incompleteness), and compute counts and medians per state, county and census tract. Tracts are published only when they carry 100 or more applications, so no small-area figure rests on a handful of files. Nothing at the applicant level is stored or republished.
