HCN Bank was founded in 1974 by a group of community leaders from the Hemet and San Jacinto area who were involved in various businesses, including real estate, auto, agriculture, and engineering. Until January of 2023, we operated as The Bank of Hemet. The original mission was to create a "friends and family" bank that was safe and sound, a nice environment for both clients and employees, and a company committed to the community. Today, these beliefs still exist, although our community has expanded.
