Updated April 2026 · FDIC Call Report Q2 2024

Community Banks

2,406 U.S. banks fit the community banks definition, holding $904.6B in combined assets. The cohort posts an average Bank Health Score of 69/100, with a Tier 1 capital ratio averaging 10.69% and an NPL ratio of 0.66%.

What Defines This Tier

Community banks — $100 million to $1 billion in assets — are FDIC-classified as such and qualify for the Community Bank Leverage Ratio (CBLR) regulatory framework, an opt-in simplified capital regime. They are heavily concentrated in commercial real estate, small business, and agricultural lending, and most operate in a single state or metro. The FDIC tracks them as a distinct population because their failure modes (concentration risk, local economic stress) differ from larger banks.

Strengths and Risks in This Tier

Strengths in this tier: relationship lending, local market knowledge, and the simplified Community Bank Leverage Ratio framework that lets well-capitalized institutions opt out of the more complex risk-based capital regime. Many community banks consistently outscore larger banks on health metrics.

Risks to watch: loan concentration is the structural risk — community banks typically hold more than 30% of their loan books in commercial real estate, often in a single metro. A local downturn (energy, agriculture, manufacturing) can move ratios meaningfully. Liquidity pressure from rising rate environments is the second-most-common stress.

For depositors: FDIC insurance protects deposits up to $250,000 per depositor, per insured bank, per ownership category — the same coverage at any FDIC-insured institution regardless of size. The Bank Health Score is a relative ranking of regulatory cushion, not a guarantee. Confirm coverage limits directly at FDIC.gov before making changes.

How These Scores Are Calculated

Every bank in this list earns a Bank Health Score from four FDIC Call Report inputs: Tier 1 capital ratio (35%), nonperforming-loan ratio inverted (30%), liquidity ratio (25%), and return on assets (10%). Data flows from the FDIC BankFind API and the FFIEC Call Report archive. Read the full methodology.

Frequently Asked Questions

What counts as a "community banks" bank?

Banks with $100M to $1B in assets, local community institutions. The FDIC and federal regulators draw size lines based on consolidated total assets reported on the quarterly Call Report. Currently 2,406 institutions fit this definition.

What is the average health score for community banks?

Across 2,406 banks in the Community Banks tier, the average Bank Health Score is 69/100, around the C/B boundary. Healthy capital is the norm, but loan-loss or liquidity pressure is visible at a meaningful share of institutions. A-graded banks: 855. B-graded: 460. D or F-graded: 372.

What are the typical strengths of banks in this tier?

Strengths in this tier: relationship lending, local market knowledge, and the simplified Community Bank Leverage Ratio framework that lets well-capitalized institutions opt out of the more complex risk-based capital regime. Many community banks consistently outscore larger banks on health metrics.

What should I watch for when reviewing a bank in this tier?

Risks to watch: loan concentration is the structural risk — community banks typically hold more than 30% of their loan books in commercial real estate, often in a single metro. A local downturn (energy, agriculture, manufacturing) can move ratios meaningfully. Liquidity pressure from rising rate environments is the second-most-common stress.

Are deposits at community banks insured the same way?

Yes. FDIC deposit insurance is identical at every FDIC-insured institution regardless of size — $250,000 per depositor, per insured bank, per ownership category. Verify your bank's FDIC status and your specific coverage at FDIC.gov.
