The increasing cost of a four-year education and the certainty of earning a degree along with student loan debt encourages more American students to attend community colleges.

New data from WalletHub reveals the best community college system is in Connecticut and the worst is in Ohio. In 2022’s States with the Best & Worst Community-College Systems, nine states were excluded from data: Alaska, Delaware, Florida, Idaho, Indiana, Nevada, Rhode Island, Utah and Vermont.
