Lived in area most of my life except for a long stint with military. Most plentiful jobs are found in the I65 corridor from Bowling Green to Louisville. Land is cheap. Taxes are moderate. Wages low compared to Coasts. State retirement plan is broke. Gov. Beavin working on it. Red state. Lotsa Christians. Open carry state. 4 seasons. East is semi-mountainous. West is flat. Lotsa fresh water and parks. Rivers. Flood control lakes. Good hunting and fishing. Biggest elk herd east of Mississippi. I like the Berea area. Bought my dulcimer there. Handmade by a local. Liberal because of the kids. They eventually grow up. Read up on Tn and Idaho. Been around the world. Like those 3 the best.

Yeah, this is all sounding like what I want to hear.

Another thing that I have come to live with, that I want to leave behind:

Do you feel that your capitol and major cities are working against you ?

Up here in PA we’re all rural and right-wing as can be. But our major cities are throwing elections to Dems and they continually work against the majority of the landmass.

Example: At Harrisburg session, a bill was passed that required all cities and towns in PA to conform to state carry laws. And in response, Harrisburg, Philly and Pitt rejected the law and continue to operate as if they are another state or even country.

Are you guys united down there more than that ? Does the capital make a habit of sticking it to people in the country ?

Whats law enforcement like down there ? I see that Kentucky has some interesting legal structures. Are all the judges voted in by public election ?

Are the Sheriffs departments and other LEO generally nice folk ?

I only ask because in my area, my Sheriffs are all pro-2a. My town cops are a mixture but a few of the guys have been REALLY bad (Pulling guns on legal citizens and the like) and the state cops are anti-gun. All 3 patrol our streets.
