COLUMBUS, Ind. - Centra Credit Union recently announced that it has been recognized on the Forbes list of America’s Best-In-State Credit Unions for 2026.
The America’s Best-In-State Credit Unions 2026 ranking is based on an independent survey of thousands of U.S. consumers, as well as publicly available reviews. To be eligible, credit unions must have received a minimum number of evaluations, with awarded institutions averaging more than 635 evaluations.
The ranking focuses on institutions that operate in 14 states or fewer and are not online-only providers, underscoring the importance of strong regional and community-based financial relationships.

Rankings are determined by analyzing overall performance and member sentiment, with top-performing credit unions in each state recognized.
“I’m proud of Centra and our more than 400 Team Members who show up every day ready to create a valuable banking experience for our Members,” Centra President and CEO Brad Davis said. “That dedication is truly evident, and I want to thank all our stakeholders for their continued trust and Membership in our organization.”
