I'd like to see the median credit score chart. It only takes a few fuckers with absolutely horrible credit to really drag down the overall score.

A low credit score isn't a result of being poor. It's a result of being stupid with money/credit which incidentally is often the root cause of being poor.

Besides being cold: what do The Dakota, Minnesota, and Wisconsin have in common?
Besides being hot: what do Georgia, Mississippi, and Louisiana have in common? Its time that Experian, Transunion, and Equifax check their privilege. |

Credit scores are pretty much a method in which financial institutions can fuck you.
"Oh, someone looked at your credit score? We better lower your credit score!" |

Glad to know mine is well above average!!! Working hard to get it even higher since a new truck sadly is in my future

I think median would be a much more useful metric than mean for this experiment.

Credit Karma says we are at 821 but my credit union told me more recently that it is 859. The kid said he'd never seen one that high.
All we do is pay our bills and keep no balance on the credit card. |

I'm not rich by any means but my score is way higher than anything else on that list.

Last report said we were at 879. We do nothing special. Just smart. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes |

Last I checked I was over 800, I don't think I have done anything particularly special or difficult to get that score. Is it people without established credit that bring the averages down?

Given the differences in populations by geography, it would be interesting to see the data cut by race and gender perhaps.

How else are you going to have a new house, 2 new cars and a boat without maxing your credit? And everybody needs a vacation, so you might miss a payment now and then.

everyone on here is over 800 I'm pretty sure, we hoard credit scores too
