Data is Plural: “Following a declared disaster,” the US Small Business Administration offers “disaster assistance in the form of low-interest, long-term disaster loans for damages not covered by insurance or other recoveries to businesses of all sizes, private nonprofit organizations, as well as homeowners and renters.” The SBA publishes anonymized data about each such loan in fiscal years 2000 to 2022, drawn directly from its Disaster Credit Management System. The records provide the relevant disaster declaration IDs, property type, ZIP code, city, county, state, verified losses (in real estate and in “content”), and approved loan amounts. Previously: SBA datasets the Paycheck Protection Program (DIP 2020.07.08) and the administration’s 7(a) and 504 loan programs (DIP 2023.01.11). [h/t Benjamin L. Collier et al.]”
