Counted from each lender's own website: a lender is listed when it describes microloans on a page we read and is headquartered in Pennsylvania or names Pennsylvania, or a county or town in it, as its service area. 18 other verified lenders that serve Pennsylvania did not mention microloans on the pages we read, and 9 lenders headquartered here have no verified data yet. Not mentioned does not mean not offered. A listing is not an offer: ask the lender.
