Lenoir Community College (LCC) is a public community college in Lenoir County, North Carolina. LCC's main campus is located in the city of Kinston in Lenoir County and it has satellite institutions in Greene and Jones counties. It is part of the North Carolina Community College System.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: at just $5,116/year after aid, this is one of the most affordable paths to a credential in the region, making it a genuinely smart choice for students watching costs or looking to transfer to a four-year school. However, median earnings of $29,400 a decade after enrollment are modest, so if you're pursuing a specific career track — healthcare, skilled trades, or early childhood education — verify that your target program actually leads to higher-paying local jobs before committing. Best suited for students who need flexibility, low costs, and a small-campus feel, especially those staying in the Kinston area.
