How Connecticut differs from the U.S.
What this means for you. SBA Express was a more common route for these loans here, so ask lenders about it if your loan is small enough to qualify.
SBA Express

We compared 9 measures with the national figure for the same period, and this is the one that differs clearly. The table compares every measure.
Connecticut next to the U.S.
| Measure | Connecticut | United States | Reading |
|---|---|---|---|
| Industry's share of all SBA loans | 1.9% | 1.4% | No clear gap |
| Median loan | $50,000 | $80,800 | No clear gap |
| Middle half of loans | $25,000 to $150,000 | $30,000 to $250,000 | – |
| Startups (the loan opens the business) | 11.1% | 18.9% | No clear gap |
| In business 2 years or less | 18.5% | 17.2% | No clear gap |
| In business more than 2 years | 59.3% | 56.6% | No clear gap |
| Change of ownership | 8.6% | 6.2% | No clear gap |
| SBA Express | 67.9% | 42.5% | Clearly higher |
| Lines of credit | 37.0% | 22.5% | No clear gap |
| Median term | 10 years | 10 years | – |
| Median spread over Prime at approval | 3 points over Prime | 2.75 points over Prime | – |
Clearly higher and clearly lower mark a gap large enough to matter and unlikely to be chance for this many loans. Spread over Prime is the rate at approval minus Prime that day, so it is not today's rate. Rows with a dash are shown for reference.

How to read this
Counts come from SBA's 7(a) loan-level data release, as of June 30, 2026. The file lists loans SBA approved. It does not list declined applications, so it cannot show approval odds. We do not publish any figure built on fewer than 5 loans. Industry is the NAICS code recorded on each loan. Location is the borrower's address in the file. Loans are those approved October 1, 2019 to June 30, 2026. SBA's fiscal year runs October 1 to September 30. Each figure is set against the national figure for the same period. A gap is called clear when it is large enough to matter and unlikely to be chance for this many loans. A comparison with no clear gap in the loans is not published. Express counts SBA Express and Export Express loans. Lines of credit are loans SBA's file flags as revolving. How we build these pages.
