Review of Lexington, Kentucky


If you want to live somewhere to raise kids...YES!
Star Rating - 7/1/2008
I LOOOOOOVED growing up in Lexington. I mainly grew up on the northside, Hollow Creek to be exact. I looovvvved growing up, I seriously can't stress that enough!
If you're looking to start a family or already have one and you want to live somewhere safe and whatnot, then Lex is for you.


HOWEVER.....

If you are YOUNG or young-like (21-40 without kids)
if you are college-age (you might like UK, but even the campus is uptight)
if you are single (hahaha what a joke)
if you enjoy nightclubs (they suck, period!)
if you enjoy a diverse range of ppl (there's only a few types of ppl in Lex)
if you are looking for "things to do" (unless you like horses)
THEN LEXINGTON IS NOT FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!!


It's the major opposite of a party-town.

But I want my kids to have that same type of childhood that I had, which is why I say that lex is an awesome place to raise kids!!! It's just not for young ppl at all!!!
