Choosing to attend a community college is a popular alternative to attending a four-year university, with an estimated 8.7 million undergraduates enrolled in public, two-year colleges during the 2016–17 academic year, according to the National Center for Education Statistics. A 2019 study from TD Ameritrade found 36% of Gen Z students considered attending a community college before a four-year college, while 21% considered attending a community college instead of a four-year college. 

While there are many reasons to choose a community college over a traditional four-year program, one key factor is cost. Student Loan Hero reports that the average cost-per-credit for a two-year public school is $135 compared to $324.70 for a four-year public school. With cheaper classes comes slightly less pressure for students to settle on a career path immediately. Moreover, community colleges allow for flexibility: Students who work full-time can attend school part-time, while those who didn’t excel in high school (and may have had a lower GPA) can have a second chance. Whether it’s to save money or experiment with career choices, community colleges serve as an alternative and gateway to four-year universities.  

The cost of 4-year college is likely to be a substantial issue in the 2020 Presidential race. Several of the Democrats running for President, including Senators Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders and former Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Julian Castro, have endorsed plans that would make public colleges free in America. Others are more skeptical, proposing more modest loan-forgiveness schemes or free community colleges. Those changes would have substantial effects across the education sector. 

To determine where the best community colleges are located, Stacker looked at data from Niche's 2020 Best Community Colleges in America to compile this list of the top 100 community colleges in America. The data is based on rigorous analysis of academic, financial, and student life data from the U.S. Department of Education, along with reviews from students and alumni. The community college list includes public junior colleges, public technical schools, and all other public, two-year colleges. 

Read on to see how community colleges across the nation stack up.
