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 Perry County, Mississippi understand their personal financing options. It highlights local lenders, credit unions, CDFIs, and ITIN-friendly institutions that actually serve this region. Federal programs are included for context, but the focus is on the local people and organizations who can help you most. Take your time, ask questions, and never sign anything you don't fully understand.
