The Best City to Bank
Credit Power Index: 16.878
At the top of the list for the best banking environment in the U.S., Houston got it done with a balanced performance across the board. None of the banks surveyed had eye-popping rates, though Advancial Federal Credit Union contributed to a strong showing for the city with solid CD rates, and CapitalOne once again surfaced with great loan rates. With cities like Houston leading the way, it’s no surprise that the Southern states boasted the best regional index in America.
