The CDFIs, credit unions, and microlenders that actually say yes — county by county, in two languages. We are not a lender. Nobody paid to be listed. And where a county has no good doors, we say so.

No agenda

We do not ask for your name, your email, or your number. Nothing on this page changes based on who you are.

Based here vs. serves here

A door is headquartered here when its head office sits inside the county line. The rest are based elsewhere and keep a branch you can walk into. We list both, and we label which is which.

Where this comes from

Every institution on this page comes from public federal data — the CDFI Fund certified list (Jan 2026), NCUA credit union data (Mar 2026), and the SBA microloan intermediary list — plus a short national tier we verified by hand. No listing is paid.

THE GUIDE

Custer County is a small, rural Colorado county anchored by Westcliffe and Silver Cliff, where ranching, outdoor recreation, construction trades, and small retail make up most of the local economy. Financing a business here means working with lenders and intermediaries who understand rural markets — including CDFIs, local credit unions, and SBA-backed programs routed through the Colorado district office. This guide walks you through who qualifies, what documents you need, which local and regional organizations actually serve Custer County, and what warning signs to watch for. Whether you have a Social Security Number or an ITIN, there are real pathways available to you.
