Henderson is a city in Vance County, North Carolina, United States. The population was 16,095 at the 2000 census. It is the county seat of Vance County.

The city was named in honor of former North Carolina Supreme Court Chief Justice Leonard Henderson, who lived nearby and was a friend of early settler Lewis Reavis. Henderson was officially chartered by the North Carolina General Assembly in 1841. European settlement began in the early 1700s, however.

Henderson is known for its exceedingly high violent-crime rate. Henderson's crime rate -- per capita -- is more than double that of Los Angeles or New York City alone, more than that of both combined, and is near-triple the national average.

It also has significant problems with unemployment, poverty (over 40% of Henderson's children live in poverty), and drugs.

In addition, it has the Ku Klux Klan listed in the phone book.
