Corbin Education - 6/1/2009
The local independent/city school Corbin Independent School Systems, is a very good system, particularly for the area.

Behind the Times - 5/12/2006
Corbin is way behind in many ways and feels stuck in history. It continues to be a "dry" area inhibiting growth from other business because they are unable to sell alcohol i.e. restuarants, hotels etc. It's a beautiful area with so much to offer in air quality, recreation, land and housing costs, but as long it it stays stuck, I see no future
