What are the major Kentucky real estate neighborhoods like?

Because of the charming mix of small town, rural land, and big city that Kentucky is able to boast, there is a great variety in the types of neighborhoods in which real estate is available. A few of the typical real estate areas are:

• Jeffersontown-Louisville. Jeffersontown is a community located in southeastern Louisville known for its pleasant mix of big city and small town. With excitement as well as comfort available, Jeffersontown’s 27,000 residents and 50,000 employees are able to enjoy the friendly environment as well as the excellent business opportunities and quickly growing economy. Jeffersontown is also recognized as having one of the finest full service public works department and police force in the state as well as a quality education system and top-notch cultural opportunities (like the ballet, orchestra, children’s theatre, and Shakespeare festival).
• Newport and Fort Thomas. These historic towns sit just across the river from Cincinnati, Ohio and thus have access to fast-moving metro life while still maintaining the family-friendly atmosphere that comes with a residential community possessing good schools, excellent parks, and historical settings. Each city has approximately 15,000 residents, and there are a variety of types of residential real estate opportunities available.
• Paducah. This Western Kentucky city, located on the Ohio and Tennessee Rivers, has managed to hold onto its historical roots and charm while still growing and developing into an industrial city with a thriving economy. The city has a flourishing tourist industry, but also features several types of housing options including rural, downtown, and suburban residences.
• Lexington. Lying about 70 miles east of Louisville and 90 south of Cincinnati, Ohio, Lexington is the state’s second largest city and was originally settled because of its lush vegetation, beautiful terrain, abundant water supply, and deep fertile soil. Now, these same assets – in addition to adding beauty to the city – have made mining, farming, mills and distilleries options for city income. There are townhouses, condos, and single-family homes available in Lexington – in historic neighborhoods, immaculate suburbs, and in downtown Lexington.
• Georgetown. Georgetown is a college town and also a historical part of Kentucky and so is very quaint and charming. Its wildlife, nature, and other attractions are also very lovely. However, it is located close to Lexington and Frankfort – larger Kentucky cities – so the opportunity to get into big-city life is not lost for those who choose Georgetown as their home.
