Bank of America Is Closing These 17 California Branches in 2024

The second-biggest bank in America isn’t exempt from the wave of bank closures sweeping across the nation.

Instead, like most other major banks, Bank of America is in the middle of closing dozens of branches, including dozens in California alone. That means if you like banking at a physical branch, you might soon have to find another location to build wealth.

Is your closest Bank of America branch shutting down this year? Find out in this list of branches set to close.

Castaic lost its one and only brick-and-mortar Bank of America branch on Sept. 24.

Residents still have access to the Bank of America ATM located inside the Circle K on The Old Road. However, you will have to go online to boost your bank account or visit a branch in another city for other transactions.

The Harbor Boulevard location closed on Aug. 13. It was the second Fullerton branch to close its doors this year, as the East Chapman Avenue location shut down at the start of March.

Luckily, Fullerton residents can still visit the Fullerton Main branch, which is also on Harbor Boulevard. Overall, there are four other walk-up ATMs in the city.

Hayward’s A Street Bank of America branch closed on Aug. 20, so consider moving your banking to the location at 24700 Hesperian Blvd., which is slated to remain open.

Hayward will also retain its two Bank of America ATMs. One is at California State University, and the other is at the Lucky supermarket on Santa Clara Street.

Los Angeles lost its first Bank of America branch earlier on in the year when the South Eastern Avenue location closed permanently on Jan. 30.

The Century Park East locale also shuttered on Aug. 27, but Los Angeles residents will still have access to dozens of other ATMs and local branches.

Like Castaic, Marysville lost its only Bank of America branch. The closure happened on Aug. 13.

Fortunately, Yuba County has plenty of other Bank of America locations, including a main branch in Yuba City. After the closure, Marysville residents should only have to drive a few extra minutes to reach a physical Bank of America branch.

One of Petaluma’s two Bank of America branches closed on Aug. 13.

After the Kentucky Street building shuts down, Petaluma residents can still visit the Bank of America financial center at 181 N. McDowell Blvd. in East Petaluma.

After Pleasanton’s Main Street Bank of America branch closed on Aug. 20, residents can still visit the Hacienda Bus Park location at 6005 Stoneridge Drive.

Reedley’s sole Bank of America branch closed on Aug. 20.

However, if you live in Reedley, you should have easy access to multiple Bank of America locations — including many physical branches and ATMs in Fresno alone.

Reseda’s two Bank of America ATMs will remain open for the foreseeable future, but its Sherman Way branch closed permanently on Aug. 6.

Ridgecrest lost its only Bank of America branch on Aug. 27. The Bank of America ATM at the Safemart in nearby Tehachapi is the closest ATM.

Residents might have to travel as far as Barstow to access in-person Bank of America branch services.

San Diego is losing at least three Bank of America branches over the coming year, including the Clairemont Mesa Boulevard branch.

Kearny Mesa residents continued to visit this branch until Aug. 27, when doors officially closed.

If you live in the Gaslamp Quarter or make a habit of stopping by this branch when you are downtown, you will now need to make alternate plans: The Island Avenue branch closed on Aug. 27.

On July 30, the California Street Bank of America branch joined the many branches that have already closed in the Bay Area this year.

Don’t expect the San Francisco-area closures to slow down anytime soon: By the end of 2024, the region will have seen more than two dozen Bank of America branches close.

San Leandro’s Fairmont branch closed on Aug. 20. However, residents won’t have to leave city limits to reach a physical Bank of America location.

The San Leandro Industrial Center bank on Marina Boulevard will remain open, as will the San Leandro Main branch on 14th Street. So, you will still have options if you don’t want to open a new bank account with another provider.

By the end of the month, the financial center in Stockton will close. Residents will no longer be able to visit this Bank of America location after Oct. 22. 

Luckily, residents can visit the nine other locations in the city of Stockton.

Atascadero will be losing its only Bank of America location on Nov. 5. Residents can travel nearby to Paso Robles, where they can find another location.

Jackson-Hyde Park will lose its main Bank of America location, but not until Dec. 10. That should give residents plenty of time to prepare for the change.

If the California Bank of America branch you typically visit is closing this year, you still have options. 

From branches in surrounding cities to online or app-based access, Bank of America should remain available without too much hassle on your end. However, perhaps this is an opportunity to open a new bank account.
