The two largest community colleges in Texas (Lone Star College and Houston Community College) require 18 hours in residence for an associate's degree. In residence doesn't mean physical attendance. It means that you took the course from the school, paid tuition, and earned the credits. You could take 18 hours of online courses and transfer or test out of the rest. Other states could require more or fewer hours in residence.
