For the second consecutive year, North Texas-based credit union EECU has been recognized by Forbes as one of America’s Best-in-State Credit Unions. EECU was once again the highest-rated credit union based in North Texas and earned the #2 ranking across the entire state.
The Forbes list aims to showcase the institutions most valued by residents in each state, recognizing credit unions that excel in meeting the unique needs and expectations of their local communities. Forbes partnered with market research firm Statista and surveyed approximately 26,000 U.S. residents. Participants were asked to rate their financial institutions on factors including trust, customer service, digital tools, the quality of financial advice given, and whether fees were transparent and reasonable.
Additionally, Statista gathered more than 500,000 publicly available text reviews and ratings about each bank and credit union written between February 2022 and March 2025.
“We’re honored to once again be recognized alongside other outstanding institutions across the United States,” said Lonnie Nicholson, EECU President and CEO. “We’re proud to honor this recognition through the continued support of our community and we look forward to giving our Members a Best-in-State banking experience for many years to come.”
