Most cheeses, especially ripened firm or hard cheeses, contain very little lactose. The culture added during the ripening process reduces the lactose that is left in the whey to trace amounts, undetectable by most lactose-intolerant people. On the other hand, cheeses that do not undergo a ripening process (cottage cheese, for example) are higher in lactose content.
