The doors in Prentiss 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.

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 (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.

THE GUIDE

This guide is written for solo contractors, small real-estate investors, and everyday residents of Prentiss County, Mississippi who want to understand their personal financing options. It walks you through what personal financing is, who qualifies in a rural Northeast Mississippi economy, what documents you will need, and which local institutions — credit unions, CDFIs, and SBA-connected lenders — actually serve this county. It also covers Mississippi-specific rules and flags the predatory traps that are unfortunately common in rural areas. Take your time reading it; there is no urgency here, only useful information.

CDFICDFI-certifiedFarmers and Merchants Bank

Based in Baldwyn, Mississippi. A community development financial institution, certified by the U.S. Treasury to lend where a bank will not, and used to a file that is not clean.

RIGHT HEREMississippi, and the rules that apply in Prentiss County.

The rules where you are.

None of this is set by a lender. Mississippi 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 TAX4.4% flat (2025)

    What the state takes off what you earn, before anyone works out what payment you can carry.

  • SALES TAX7.0% state · 0.07% 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$53K

    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 LIVING86.3

    National index, where 100 is the country's average. Under 100 means your money goes further here.
