NCUA-insured credit union (federal insurance language published on Alta Vista site / NCUA Insured Funds page). Confirm via NCUA locator. Not ASI-only on sources reviewed.
Field of membership (summary)
Published on Alta Vista’s Redlands checking guide FAQ and page footer: membership open to persons who live, work, worship or attend school in San Bernardino or Riverside Counties, and to immediate family of current members. History page notes a 2007 community charter expanding to anyone who lives, works, or worships in San Bernardino and Riverside Counties.
Join steps (as published)
Confirm SB or Riverside live/work/worship/school (or family) path. Apply online or at a Redlands / Rialto branch. Bring government photo ID, SSN, proof of address, and the published $5 membership fee.
Fees (only if published)
Published: $5 non-refundable membership fee (How to Join). Checking opening deposits vary by product ($25–$50 cited on Redlands guide) — confirm current account pages..
ATM / network notes
Published: 30,000+ surcharge-free CO-OP network ATMs (history / checking guide). Confirm locator and any out-of-network fees on altavistacu.org.
Branches serving Inland Empire
Published Inland Empire branches include Redlands (1425 W Lugonia Ave) and Rialto (2025 N Riverside Ave) — use altavistacu.org locations. County FOM ≠ a branch in every city.
Caveats
County path covers San Bernardino or Riverside — still not every IE ZIP has a branch. Prefer primary membership pages when Alta Vista updates them; this listing cites the published FAQ/footer FOM language on the Redlands guide plus the history community-charter note.
Join difficulty rationale
Easy — published dual-county Inland Empire live/work/worship/school community path with a $5 membership fee — core Easy IE option.

Not a guarantee: Meeting the published field of membership does not mean you will be approved. Credit unions still run identity checks (CIP) and their own account rules.
