Jones County, North Carolina
Jones County is one of North Carolina's smallest, most rural counties, its coastal-plain landscape two-thirds covered by Croatan National Forest around the seat, Trenton, and the small towns of Maysville and Pollocksville. With no major local employer, most residents commute to Kinston, New Bern, or the military bases at Camp Lejeune and Cherry Point, so demand here tracks regional job growth rather than in-county development.
