Chase has been building new branches at the same time.

Chase has been closing branches too.

In Terrebonne Parish back in the days of Priemer Bank, they hand many more locations. They built or their predecessor Terrebonne Bank and Trust built Houma’s only 7 floor commercial office building. (Now it is owned by the Parish Government) They even had locations as far south as Chauvin.

Now, there are 2 branches in Terrebonne Parish, after closing the one by the mall. It could be 3 if you count the Branch that is in “Thibodaux” but still within the parish line of Terrebonne by Walmart and Percy Brown Road.

Now Chase has been expanding their city and state reach. They have been expanding into states where they did not have branches. When I was in Vegas, I realized that there were no Capital Ones there but there were a few Chase branches which I did use to get some cash instead of paying 10 dollars per ATM transaction at a Casino.
