We have a long history of service in the Bay Area

We were one of the first credit unions in the State of California founded in 1932 as City & County Employees' Credit Union. Membership is now open to anyone who lives, works, or attends school in Alameda, Contra Costa, San Joaquin, Solano, Stanislaus, or Kings counties in California. We believe in banking locally and hope you will too. Learn About Us
