SBA loans in Kansas: FY2020–FY2025 data
Kansas ranked #32 of 50 states and DC by number of SBA 7(a) and 504 loans approved in FY2020–FY2025. Below: volume by year, loan sizes, industries, and the lenders and CDCs that made the most loans, all from SBA's public loan-level data.
Data as of (SBA 7(a) & 504 FOIA release). Headline figures cover fiscal years 2020 through 2025 (October 1, 2019 to September 30, 2025). Methodology and sources.

What this means for a borrower
- Half of the 7(a) loans approved in Kansas were between $86,375 and $540,200, and the median was $237,650, 20% above the national median of $198,300. A request well above $540,200 would be larger than three in four 7(a) loans recorded here.
- 36.3% of 7(a) loans here were under $150,000 (national: 40.6%).
- 504 loans were 8.9% of the loans counted here (national: 11.7%), with a median 504 amount of $576,000.
- 227 lenders (counted by name as recorded in the data) approved at least one 7(a) loan here. The 10 most active by count made 34.3% of 7(a) loans, so 7(a) lending here is spread across many lenders.
- 7(a) approvals went from 372 in FY2020 to 414 in FY2025, up 11%.
- The sector with the most loans was Accommodation and Food Services (13.4% of loans), followed by Construction (11.4%).
These are counts of approved loans. The data does not show applications that were declined or withdrawn, so it says nothing about approval odds, and past volume is not a forecast for any individual request.

They describe past approvals only: they are not rates, approval odds, a ranking or an endorsement of any lender, and not a prediction for any loan. Precise SBA is not a lender and is not affiliated with the U.S. Small Business Administration. We never charge you.
