==Some facts== * Every cyclic group is locally cyclic, and every locally cyclic group is [[abelian group|abelian]].{{sfnp|Rose|2012|p=54}} * Every finitely-generated locally cyclic group is cyclic. * Every [[subgroup]] and [[quotient group]] of a locally cyclic group is locally cyclic. * Every [[group homomorphism|homomorphic]] image of a locally cyclic group is locally cyclic. * A group is locally cyclic if and only if every pair of elements in the group generates a cyclic group. * A group is locally cyclic if and only if its [[lattice of subgroups]] is [[distributive lattice|distributive]] {{harv|Ore|1938}}. * The [[torsion-free rank]] of a locally cyclic group is 0 or 1. * The [[endomorphism ring]] of a locally cyclic group is [[commutative ring|commutative]].{{citation needed|date=June 2015}}
