Denial rate by applicant group, 2024

On the 1,373 screened applications in this county: first-lien, owner-occupied, site-built, one-unit home purchases. These are raw rates. Here the Black rate is 22.4% and the White non-Hispanic rate 6.4%, a difference of 16.0 pp. That difference is not adjusted for debt load, leverage, product or income. Nationally, reweighting on those four accounts for 44.0% of the Black/White gap; see the standardization. A group with fewer than 100 screened applications shows its count and no rate.

County codes are not stable. The register carries the county FIPS the lender reported. Codes change: Connecticut replaced its eight counties with nine planning regions, and the 2024 file uses the new codes. Every county on this layer was checked against a FIPS reference before it was given a page, and a county present in one year is not assumed to be present in the next. The state-level series for this state is on /mortgage/MS.
