What a Avon Lake borrower is actually offered

In Avon Lake, a smaller city of about 25,942, the amount is advanced up front and repaid in fixed installments; the city's size does not change the pricing. Because pricing is borrower-level, two people in Avon Lake can be quoted different APRs on the same amount and term. A longer term lowers the monthly payment on a Avon Lake loan but raises total interest, so the smallest payment is not the cheapest loan.
