Fifth Third Bank Just Closed 9 More Branches (Will Yours Be Next in 2025?)

After shuttering dozens of locations in 2024, Fifth Third Bank continues cutting back in 2025. With closures confirmed in the states of Michigan, Florida, Ohio, and more. No final tally has been released. However, the bank says more consolidations are possible as it shifts its focus to digital banking and expansion in the Southeast.

If your branch is on the chopping block, it may be time to open a new bank account that better fits your needs.

Below are the 9 locations that closed in June 2025, information on other banks downsizing, and a breakdown of the reasons behind this wave of branch shutdowns.

• 14420 Beach Boulevard, Jacksonville, FL 32250
  
• 153 Second Avenue South, Saint Petersburg, FL 33701
  
• 2011 Aloma Avenue, Winter Park, FL 32792
  

Florida saw three closures in early 2025, including high-traffic locations in Jacksonville and downtown St. Petersburg. The Winter Park branch on Aloma Avenue also closed, reflecting Fifth Third's strategy to pull back from overlapping branches in urban corridors and invest in digital services instead.

• 5959 East 71st Street, Indianapolis, IN 46220
  
• 6760 Broadway, Merrillville, IN 46410
  

Fifth Third exited two Indiana locations as part of its ongoing network evaluation. The Indianapolis branch on East 71st Street was located near a busy commercial area, while the Merrillville location served part of Lake County. Both closures suggest a move to consolidate operations in suburban and metro-adjacent markets.

• 2201 Wealthy Street SE, Grand Rapids, MI 49506
  

This East Grand Rapids branch was one of the few closures in Michigan in 2025. Positioned in a dense retail corridor, the branch likely faced overlap with nearby locations and shifting demand toward mobile banking.

• 9301 Vista Way, Garfield Heights, OH 44125
  
• 5342 North Hamilton Road, Columbus, OH 43230
  
• 450 Ohio Pike, Cincinnati, OH 45255
  

Ohio, where Fifth Third is headquartered, continues to see a steady stream of branch consolidations. Closures in Garfield Heights, Columbus, and Cincinnati reflect the bank's careful pruning of legacy locations, even in core markets, as more customers turn to online and app-based banking solutions.

Fifth Third Bank is not alone when it comes to bank closures. U.S. banks are accelerating their retreat from brick-and-mortar locations in 2025, with over 320 branches set to close in just the first three months. Major players like Flagstar, TD Bank, Wells Fargo, and Bank of America are leading the shift as they restructure operations for a more digital-first future.

Americans have changed how they bank, with many switching to online banks. Online banking has accelerated in recent years, and the result is that more brick-and-mortar branches are closing.

Another factor in branch closings is consolidation, with banks merging and redundant branches being eliminated as part of the process.

If your Fifth Third branch is closing and you don't have another branch close by, consider moving some of your banking to online or mobile options.

Look for an institution that offers a high-yield savings account so you can continue to build wealth.

Finding a new place to bank might not be fun, but there are plenty of options if your Fifth Third branch closes down.

Perhaps there is another Fifth Third branch nearby that you can visit. Or, consider switching to a different bank if you need a branch nearby for your particular banking needs.

You might even find a new bank where you can continue to prepare yourself financially.
