Reported outcomes by applicant race

CFPB derived race categories. HMDA carries no credit score, debt-to-income ratio or down payment, so a gap between these rows is an outcome difference and never, on its own, evidence of discrimination.

Race Applications Approval Rate Denial Rate
White 223 52.5% 32.3%
Black or African American * 35 51.4% 31.4%
Joint * 3 100.0% 0.0%
American Indian or Alaska Native * 2 0.0% 100.0%
Asian * 2 50.0% 50.0%

* Fewer than 50 applications -- percentages for this group have wide statistical uncertainty and should not be read as precise.

Reported outcomes by applicant ethnicity

Hispanic or Latino is an ethnicity, not a race, and is reported separately per U.S. Census Bureau standards. The same limitation applies: HMDA records the outcome, not the underwriting inputs behind it.

Ethnicity Applications Approval Rate Denial Rate
