Best Bank — Palmetto Citizens Federal Credit Union

Second Place: Founders Federal Credit Union

Credit unions actually took first AND second place here, along with an honorable mention spot for a reason. They’re customer-owned institutions that have all of the capabilities of a large bank with a small-bank feel. Everyone who banks at Palmetto Citizens Federal Credit Union is a shareholder in the institution, and that creates a family feel that other banks can’t provide.

Honorable Mention: First Community Bank, First Citizens Bank
