The water tower says it all - 5/15/2017
It's a great place to live if you are a redneck.
Really, when you cross over from Ohio it's like going to another country.
I grew up here and spent my formative years being bullied, even by teachers at school, and dodging fights. I could not wait to grow up and get away from here.
Too far north to be considered southern. Indeed, it isn't like the rest of Kentucky or even Cincinnati for that matter. I don't know what it is, and I don't think they know either. They certainly are proud of their water tower though. People that live in Cincinnati make fun of them.
I do not come here except to get cheap liquor at Costco (which they can't sell in the Ohio stores) or Bruster's ice cream. When I do come here, I get out as fast as I

Great place to grow up, but when you're old enough, get out and experience a bigger better

Perfect excect for ---- - 1/25/2007
This is a wonderful place to live and retire if one could get rid of whatever it is that causes sinus problems. Cost of living is low, income tax for retirees is good, weather is 4 seasons but fairly mild, lots to do with Cincinnati so close, bus system is great, fairly low crime rate in Florence. Now for the problem -- something in the air attacks a huge proportion of the population. Within two years of moving here my husband can barely breathe and I have a cough associated with sinus drainage. We have been told this is common for this area. The problem is year round and appears to be a high mold spore count in the outdoor
