Well, some visit OH or IN and TN but there you go. Winters are wet, windy, gray and longggggg. Summers are humid and BUGGY!
And someone having a negative or differing opinion than your own doesn't constitute trolling, but it does make you bias for saying so.

Desert rat is a good name for you....

It is so nice to hear so many nice things about Northern Kentucky (my area)! Most of the posts on here have been true to the area and realize what a great place Northern Kentucky is!!! I am glad to live here and know that it is a great place to live. By the way to the original question that was asked, "yes" Union is a nice place to live! I would also look into Independence and Burlington. Are you wanting to live in a rural area here in NKY?

That is one of the main things I really like about it! Like the rest of the South, Northern Kentucky it is very conservative politically.

Tell me something please, if you live in the middle of any state and you drive to the middle of another, who can't tell they are in a diffrent culture? I'm not sure where out west you are from, but ever state there has something wrong. Do you live in AZ, NM, Southern Cal? If so you think I cant notice people that have are there Illegally. Or maybe Utah, CO, OR, WA, MY, WY, or N Cal? If so no room to talk there, some of the most rural areas I have ever seen are there, even more so than KY, I mean who likes to drive 90+ miles to the nearist Lows? Nothing is wrong with these states, or the people there, just like here. So to say it is "backwoods", not really sure what the point in that was, is not only rude, but shows the lack of intelligence/knowledge you have about other locations. Looks like your the one who does't "get out much". (ps if I left out any letter "U" sorry, it gets stuck lol)

Billy Ray Cyrus made a proud documentary that went into depth about KY and its hillbillies. It was three hours of banjo playing, moonshining, grammar ( "you know'd wut we done and we was goin' " say goodbye to the verb were ) destroying information. It covered the ENTIRE state. Entire. And I have been from one end to the other ( unfortunately ) and there are hillbillies covering the state. They wouldn't be any happier with you denying their existence. Many revel in that status. Many people live in rural sections of states but aren't backwoods. Many. There's a reason cartoons and jokes have been created for so many years about states like KY. It wasn't a random choice. The state holds some great records * most overweight, most smokers, worst teeth to name a few * So thank you for trolling about my differing opinion ( which I based upon experience ). I've been from CA to FL ( several points in between ) and overseas. I get out enough. I also stand by my opinion that the weather in KY ..... ( simplified ) sucks. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go try and wash the vision of men ( and women )wearing camoflauge year round as daily wear, filthy baseball caps, abandoned trailors in fields, pregnant women smoking ( states fav past time ), and brown ( or none ) teeth out of my ' dadgum ' mind. Good day!
