Abstract

The Federal Government supports business development by providing credit assistance. Although the government uses both direct and indirect programs to disseminate credit assistance, this study focuses on direct programs over the period 1983-89. Rural counties received 27 percent ($6.3 billion) of the total $23.5 billion given in direct assistance. Rural areas received more funding than urban areas when measured on a per capita or per business basis. Low-income areas received less assistance per capita (more per business). Persistent poverty counties received below-average amounts by whatever measure is used.
