// Overview

FHFA National Mortgage Database aggregate statistics

The Federal Housing Finance Agency publishes aggregate statistics from the National Mortgage Database (NMDB): new-mortgage indicators for the nation and census areas, as downloadable zip archives that each hold a CSV file. These are area-level aggregates, not loan-level or borrower records.
