The Small Business Administration provides most of the
business assistance in the U.S. However, USDA's Rural Business
and Cooperatives Service and the Department of Commerce's
Economic Development Administration also provide assistance
to businesses as a means to further economic development.
This is a U.S. county map showing how the per capita level
of business assistance varied across nonmetro America in
fiscal year 2001. In that year, the highest level of receipts
(greater than $39 per capita) were in the West and Alaska.
