Worst Town I've Ever Lived In!
- 1/25/2020
I've been here, for at least 7 years; it's the worst town I've ever lived in.
Most people here are boring, there's little-to-nothing to do, and here I am, stuck to live in this dump. Plus, I have no friends, here in this town.
This place makes the United States look like a third world country; even to the point, where you'd be better off with Las Vegas, or any big city...at least you have SOMETHING interesting to do,

I recently visited Franklin for 3 days 7-24-2015 It was hot 90-95 degrees but not humid, definitely not unbearable. And I live in Ohio! Memphis is unbearable. I talked with residents who told me about 3 weeks of the year it is in the mid 90's starting the last week of July. I enjoyed all the tourist sites and had a choice of eleven modestly priced motels.I have been through this city several years in a row, different seasons of the year. It is a wonderful town. This town is 30 minutes East, West, North and South of major cities with jobs..ie, Scottsville, Russellville, Bowling Green or Nashville. There is plenty of tourism places for day trips with family. There is a hospital in town, excellent schools, wonderful homes, friendly fun people, churches, golf course, Country club and the Kentucky Downs. This is the perfect place to retire but why wait until then? Jobs, great weather year round, and close enough to bigger cities when you need a vacation or a better paying job.

Sunny and bright
- 11/17/2010
For the most part, Franklin has a bright, sunny environment. Without A/C, it would be unbearable in the summer so be sure to keep the cooling unit serviced. Occasional snow around Christmas makes this a three season environment with a very pleasant and extended Spring and
