You or someone you know got a 256 credit score and you are wondering if 256 is a good credit score. In other words, is a person's creditworthiness good if his or her credit score is 256? First, to put the 256 credit score (FICO) in perspective, credit scores range from 300-850. The higher the number, the better the credit score is. A 256 credit score is a very low credit score and means bad credit. 256 is NOT a good credit score. Someone with a credit score of 256 will have smaller chances of getting a loan or even a good job compared to people with a higher credit score. How much house can I afford with my salary?
