What residents are saying about today’s issues

What do you value when looking for a bank?

RICH BERNSTEIN Houma


Reliability. I need to know that my money is safe and secure and free from some of the predators who are out there.

DARLA PIERCE Lockport

They have to be personable. It has to be a place that I can walk in and feel comfortable with the people who are in there. That’s big for me.


EVELYN TOUPS Thibodaux

I think it’d have to be security, right? I don’t want to be breached or hacked at anytime. Most of the good banks are secure, but that’s something that’s important to me.

PAUL MATHERNE Montegut


I only deal with locally-owned banks, so I guess being local is my answer. I don’t like the chains. I work with handshakes I make to local people.

SAMANTHA VERRET Houma

It used to be interest rates, but the industry has changed. Now, it’s technology. Who will best protect me if something happens and my things get stolen.


MEGHAN MARSH Thibodaux

For me, it’s the people. I walk into my bank and get offered coffee, while being invited afterward to stay around for a chat. I like that friendly vibe.
