The top local rate at Coosa Valley CU requires a $100,000 minimum — that’s a jumbo CD. If you have less than that, Family Savings CU at 4.10% with just a $500 minimum is your best local bet. Or skip the branch entirely — Raisin at 4.30% requires just $1 to open and is available to all Georgia residents.
