I moved cities 5 times in 8 years. The last thing I wanted to do is try and evaluate a credit union each time.

I look at it now and think about it, but I have to deal with international things and the last thing I want to deal with is trying to get a hold of my bank from ten timezones over.

Thanks to modern banking, you don't need to be in the same city as your credit union.

I've used the same CU for 20 years, the last 8 of which has been 2000 miles away from it.

Most credit unions are in a network with each other so you can use other CU's ATMs and branches. There are a few limitations, generally around large withdrawals, but the nearest actual branch/ATM of my CU is ~250 miles away and I do just fine. I've done both an auto loan and a mortgage with them without ever having to go into a branch.
