Triple-A All the Way

Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group raised its rating on Chesterfield County to AAA from AA+. This is the highest rating granted by Standard & Poor’s.

In receiving this upgrade, Chesterfield County has become one of only 8 counties in the nation to earn a triple-A rating from all of the 3 major bond rating agencies: Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., Fitch Investors Service and Standard & Poor’s.

Chesterfield also now has the unique distinction of being the only county in the Commonwealth of Virginia with triple-A ratings from all three major rating agencies.
