Variations over the years relate to the sale of bonds, the amount of outstanding bond debt and changes in
population. Among other strategies, the City leverages bond debt to achieve long-term goals for
implementation of capital projects. While total debt is up (currently $160 million versus $148 million in 2000),
debt per capita is at its lowest rate since 2000 ($563). Net Bonded Debt Per Capita measures bond debt per
citizen to facilitate municipal bond ratings. Greensboro’s favorable credit worthiness evaluations from
nationally recognized credit rating agencies allows the City to borrow money and sell bonds at advantageous
rates.
