Which states have the best community colleges? KS in top 20

(KOAM) -- As students head back to school, WalletHub is releasing its data on which states have the best community college.

WalletHub has found which state has the best community colleges across 653 institutions. The organization used 18 key metrics from its "Best and Worse Community Colleges" report.

“Community colleges are an especially attractive option this year as many families deal with inflated prices.
