The average credit score in the United States is currently at an all-time high of 695. Though different scoring models exist, which cause this figure to fluctuate by a few points, most fall between 660 to 720. This coincides with what the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau defines as 'prime' - an average score.
For Fico scores, which range from 300- 850, a 700 credit score is up there, but still 150 points shy of the highest credit score. Roughly 18% of American consumers have a Fico score somewhere between 700 and 749, making it the second most common distribution after the 750-799 range, which holds a 27% share.
