Determine your money habits. Consider how you spend and save and how often you use cards, online banking or cash.
Decide if the location is important for you. Local financial institutions are great for those who do regular deposits. You may do a good portion of banking online, which means location may not be important.
Decide if customer service is important to you. Banking institutions with brick and mortar locations often allow you to speak to someone if you have a banking problem. Good phone support is also worth checking.
Compare fees and interest rates associated with each bank.
Check if the financial lending institution is financially healthy and research their financial ethics.
