First State Bank employee Melinda Rice was congratulated

We’ve always been about community first. First State Bank has a long history of serving, reaching out, and connecting. We started out in 1955, with a single Key West branch and a handful of employees. As our community grew, so did the Bank, steadily adding more services and locations. We’ve grown and changed in a lot of good ways. But our core values remain the same – we’re a proud, locally owned institution operated for the benefit of the people we serve. Today, 70 years later, First State Bank continues to thrive and expand our line-up of products, services, and delivery systems offered in our offices from Key West to Ft Lauderdale.  And although we have seven decades of service, we’ve stayed relevant with technology, security, and customer service so that you can bank anytime, anywhere online or in our mobile app. But what really sets us apart? Our people. We’re your friends and neighbors, and we care about you. From our tellers to our president, we're all working to help you fulfill your dreams and aspirations, to create a better life for you and your family. We want to see you succeed. That’s why we do all we can to see that your deposits go toward developing our own local communities. So if you're looking for a bank that feels the way you do about your community, a bank run by people who have a real commitment to your area, switch to First State Bank!
