The doors in Lassen County.
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.

How to read this list.
We do not ask for your name, your email, or your number. Nothing on this page changes based on who you are.
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.
Every institution on this page comes from public federal data — the CDFI Fund certified list (Aug 2026), NCUA credit union data (Jun 2026), and the SBA microloan intermediary list (Sep 2026) — plus a short national tier we verified by hand. We refresh each list as its agency publishes. No listing is paid.
This guide helps Lassen County residents — including solo contractors, small investors, and Spanish-speaking community members — understand personal financing options available locally. It covers who qualifies, what documents you need, which local lenders and community organizations actually serve this region, and how to protect yourself from predatory traps. Origen Capital is a directory, not a lender, and this guide is for informational purposes only.

Based in Yuba City, California. A credit union — owned by its members rather than by shareholders, which is exactly what changes the conversation after a bank has said no.
BEST FORA personal loan, or building a credit file from nothing, and buying, repairing or refinancing a home.Based in Sacramento, California. A member-owned credit union, which means the people deciding on your file answer to depositors in the same towns you work in. It is a minority depository.
BEST FORBuying, repairing or refinancing a home, and working capital, equipment and payroll for a small business.The rules where you are.
None of this is set by a lender. California sets it, and it applies the same in every county in the state — which is why it is worth knowing before you knock on any of the doors above.
- STATE INCOME TAX1.0% – 13.3%
What the state takes off what you earn, before anyone works out what payment you can carry.
- SALES TAX7.25% state · 1.7% avg local
What you pay on top of every purchase. On a small loan for a repair or a tool, this is a real part of the total.
- MEDIAN HOUSEHOLD INCOME$92K
Half the households in the state earn less than this. A lot of the programs above use that number to decide who qualifies.
- COST OF LIVING140.9
National index, where 100 is the country's average. Under 100 means your money goes further here.
