I would like to know as much as possible about the value of real estate in that area. Where should I post this message to get the most response, if any?

Real estate would be quite cheap in Science Hill. It's very small but not too far from Somerset, which is the largest town in that area. You may get more responses if you post a "new thread" in the Kentucky forum.

Hey Guys,

I'm sorry but I'm new and I didn't know where to start. I wanted an opinion as to what happened to me today. My apartment was inspected today (they make sure smoke detectors, etc. are working properly). When I came home this evening my yorkie that is ill was locked in the bedroom with no food or water. He was very upset as was I. Just wondering what I should do, if anything. Thanks for your help.

Really I want a neighborhood that most people would call boring....Quiet, yard, minimal traffic & possibly somewhere with other young families. A public library nearby would be great. And I love PIE!! Thanks for any advice on possible neighborhoods.

My suggestion is to move to Berea which is about 30 minutes. Richmond around 18 minutes. Beea has a Brand New downtown Library. Check it out!
Good luck!

hi i also am new to this forum and would like to know if anyone has any information on fulton ky. Like the price of housing, utilities, cost of living , population, i am a nurse by profession and unable to work due to an injury and like many americans this came out of no where and i wasnt prepared for early retirement. So now i need to find a small town where the cost of living is within my budget with low crime rate, good neighbors, and a good place to call home. If any one has any suggestions i would greatly appreciate any input. Need to be able to survive on 30,000.00 or less per year for a few years i am hoping to be able to return to work in about a year.

There is a separate thread on Hickman (near Fulton) and Fulton is mentioned a few times http://www.city-data.com/forum/kentu...-kentucky.html

How does one receive $30,000 a year and not work?
