The anatomy of a Central City personal loan

Most loans made to Central City's 104 residents are unsecured, so nothing is pledged and the lender relies on your credit history.

A longer term lowers the monthly payment on a Central City loan but raises total interest, so the smallest payment is not the cheapest loan.
