I Love my credit union. Their online banking is exceptional. I can get balances, recent transactions, transfer $ all via text and deposit checks on the app from home. It's so dang easy! They have 2 ATMs in Tehachapi & are very secure. Highly recommend.
In 1952, a group state employees met for the purpose of forming a financial cooperative for co-workers and their families. From these beginnings, Safe 1 Credit Union was founded.
The first Safe 1 "office" was actually a room located in the home of our first manager, with transaction receipts kept in a closet. By the end of our first month, Safe 1 had seven individuals banking with us and just over $300 in assets.
A lot has changed over the years. However, our commitment to serving the citizens of the southern San Joaquin Valley remains the same. That's why more than 75,000 individuals representing nearly $900 million in assets choose to bank with us.
