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 solo contractors, small business owners, and everyday residents of Madison County, Idaho understand their personal financing options. It highlights local credit unions, community lenders, and ITIN-friendly institutions that actually serve the Rexburg and eastern Idaho area. Federal programs like FHA or SBA loans are useful context, but your best starting point is always a local intermediary who knows your county. Read through each section at your own pace — there is no rush, and no single lender is right for everyone.

The rules where you are.
None of this is set by a lender. Idaho 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 TAX5.695% flat
What the state takes off what you earn, before anyone works out what payment you can carry.
- SALES TAX6.0% state · 0.03% 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$70K
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 LIVING98.6
National index, where 100 is the country's average. Under 100 means your money goes further here.
