BetterDebt publishes information and benchmarking. It does not provide advice on the
issuance of municipal securities.
Nothing here is a recommendation to issue, refinance, restructure, or choose a method of sale, and
nothing here should be relied on as such. Where this site shows what a borrowing would have cost at
another rate, that is arithmetic on a comparison you can check — not a claim that a different rate
was available. Decisions about borrowing belong with your governing body and your own registered
municipal advisor.
Figures come from public filings and public datasets and are shown with their source, the date we
retrieved them, how we obtained them, and their known limitations. Where a source does not report a
value it is labelled not reported — never shown as zero, never
estimated. Peer counts are always shown; a median resting on two deals is displayed as resting on
two deals.
