I haven’t actually looked into any that weren’t local. Well, I did, but none that I found I could qualify for at the time. It may be worth looking into again.

If you are in any sort of unique demographic, like you aren’t a straight white male office worker, you might look for credit unions that serve your specific population.

Like if you do trade work, there’s options. If you are Hispanic there’s options. Veterans have several options, women and feminists have several as well. Just sort of look for whatever fits you and see what might be available on a more national scale.

And if you are a cishet white male office worker with nothing to distinguish you from anyone else there’s probably a credit union for that, too. The theme of the day is themes. Credit unions that aren’t regionally based are nonetheless community based, and I’m sure you fit a community.

Really tho I hope you find something that fits so you can buck the bank. Banks are horrible and we can do better! Through unions!

Edit: I looked up Star Trek credit union just for giggles and there’s a NASA credit union, hence the theme being themes.

Not the best places to look tbh. Nothing personal, ofc, but stuff to be aware of. Nothing comes up for geico news search but as a major company I don’t trust them in the slightest. But navy fed and USAA have both proven to be garbage piles.
