A credit score of 629 is not a very bad credit score, but it is not  a great credit score. A great score will be 700 and above.
A surprising number of people have a score above 700, with the largest percentage â 27%, according to some estimates â between 750-799. So, according to most sources, Americans have pretty good credit â at least enough to qualify them for the best interest rates on mortgages and credit cards. In a recent study from Experian (March 2008), the credit bureau officially calculated the national average credit score at 692. Thatâs not bad, by most standards. But, like everything else, that score is relative to what the market will bear.
