What is a good credit score?

A credit score of 700+ is considered good, and a score of 750+ is considered excellent.

Most credit score scales range between 300 to 850. However, these are not set in stone as many lending institutions have their own scale.

In the United States, credit scores are typically generated by three credit bureaus: Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. These bureaus receive credit related information from companies you do business with, and produce a credit rating.
