Wikipedia's Yuma article gives a 2020 city population of 95,548 and describes the metropolitan area as Yuma County, with a Census 2020 estimate of 203,247. The city sits in a hot desert, about 60 miles from the Gulf of California, with California and Mexico nearby. Interstate 8 is the freeway the article lists. The article calls Yuma an important station for truck traffic among California, Arizona, and Mexico. It does not say Interstate 8 runs to Phoenix. A sponsor with a warehouse should describe the trucks that actually serve the building, not a freeway slogan.
On agriculture, the article says Yuma's weather supports more than 175 crop types and singles out lettuce. It says Yuma County provides 90 percent of the leafy vegetables grown in the United States from November through March. That is the sourced season. This page does not use a 'capital of lettuce' nickname. It also says anywhere from 70,000 to more than 85,000 out-of-state visitors make Yuma their winter residence. Parks that house those visitors are the collateral type on Arizona RV parks. This page does not name a park it has not sourced. The statewide index is Arizona markets.
The air station, the proving ground, and a Phase I question
Wikipedia's article on Marine Corps Air Station Yuma places the station about two miles from the city center, sharing the airfield with Yuma International Airport. Marine Corps use dates from 1959, and the station was renamed on 20 July 1962. The article says it is home to F-35B squadrons of the 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing, including VMFA-214, VMFA-211, VMFA-122, and VMFA-225, plus MAWTS-1, VMX-1, and VMFT-401. The same article says the station is a designated Superfund site because of soil and groundwater contaminants, including asbestos. A lender on nearby commercial property may ask for a Phase I. That is a document question, not a legal conclusion about any parcel. The explainer is Phase I environmental site assessments.
Yuma Proving Ground's Wikipedia article describes a U.S. Army test center whose headquarters is about 30 miles north of Yuma, in southwestern La Paz County and western Yuma County, with desert testing at the Yuma Test Center and a history reaching to the 1940s. This page does not quote a budget, a headcount, or a size ranking. Military payroll and test activity are context for who might rent housing or services. They are not a tenant credit unless the lease names the tenant. Industrial buildings that might serve packing or distribution are discussed as a type on Arizona industrial. This page does not invent a named cold-storage plant.
What lenders ask when the harvest is the calendar
A large share of local work is seasonal agriculture. A lender will ask whether a building's income is harvest-season only or is paid all year. That question is not an unemployment ranking, and this page will not print one. Apartments mean five or more units. How much equity a buyer brings, without a leverage percentage on this site, is down payments for Arizona commercial property. Whether a credit union or a bank is the right depository conversation is credit unions and banks.
Owner-user buildings can be an SBA 504 introduction, arranged with an SBA lender and a CDC. Rural or agribusiness requests sometimes belong with a USDA-approved lender. Capital Market Funds does not make either loan. The pages are Arizona bank, Arizona SBA 504, and USDA Business and Industry. Multifamily as a property type is Arizona multifamily. Capital Market Funds is not a Fannie Mae DUS lender.
Yuma sources after the season is named
| Source | When it fits |
|---|---|
| Bank | A bank is the first read for a Yuma warehouse or retail building with leases that do not depend on a single harvest week. |
| Bridge & Private | Private bridge fits a building whose income is still being proven across a full growing season. |
| Fannie Mae | Five-or-more-unit apartments are an agency conversation only with an approved lender. This office is not a DUS lender. |
