**The Best Thing About Louisville?**  The food and drinks!

While Louisville may best be known by outsiders as March Madness heaven, Louisville is lowkey a foodie town. While the tourists are 100% going to be downtown on the main drag, you’ll find a ton of amazing restaurants and drink spots even just off the downtown scene. Nulu, or “New Louisville” is best known for it’s growing number of local restaurants. Or if Farmer’s Markets are your thing, hit up Douglass Loop on a Saturday with friends!

**The Worst Thing About Louisville?**  Almost no walkability

Unless you live in “walker’s paradise,” AKA the central business district, you’ll need a car. Almost all residents in Louisville rely on their own transportation, and parking downtown for a night out can be expensive and a headache to find on a busy night. 

**How You Living?**  Neighborhood Pride!

Because of the low walkability of Louisville, most people pick a neighborhood they feel at home in! If you’re looking for the new trendy spot, stick to Nulu or the East Market. If you are feeling college town vibes, check out Old Louisville; just south of downtown, it’s known for its Victorian Homes and proximity to the University of Louisville. Similar to the Highlands, Germantown is a family favorite with shotgun houses, an eclectic mix of local businesses and a small-town feel!

**Why You Should Move Here Now?**  

Louisville, besides being underrated as a foodie town, is just underrated in general. It has a lower cost of living and a quaint college-town feel. Settle in, grab a Hot Brown and let’s do this!

**The Best Thing About Lexington?** - The Worshipped Wildcats

If you’re not from the area and have heard of Lexington, chances are it’s for one of two reasons: 1. The Horses  2. The Kentucky Wildcats. 

While it's possible to avoid the horse culture in Lexington it's not possible to avoid the city’s insanity for the Wildcats (at least in-season). Few communities come together and rally around a team (or anything) quite like Lexington rallies around hoops. Being a part of this community is something that residents take great pride in, and often claim is the crown jewel of their city. The large hospital and jobs that come with the massive public university certainly don’t hurt either.

**The Worst Thing About Lexington?** - The Un-Worshipped Weather

Do not be deceived by Kentucky’s claim of being a southern state. If you’re living in Lexington, expect the weather to be a brutal mix of both southern and midwestern inhospitality. The local parks and nearby outdoor hotspots such as Red River Gorge and Mammoth Cave are certainly a plus, but residents often complain about the fact that there are very few days weather-wise to enjoy them. Snowier and more frigid winter days than most southern cities quickly transition into hotter and more humid summer days than most midwest cities. 
	
**How You Living?**  College Town or Colonial?

For residents living outside The University area, large single family homes are the norm. Lexington is a sprawling city with a mix of relatively inexpensive colonial and contemporary homes. Farmhouses are also common as part of small to large plots of farmland, and its overall concentration of large and reasonably priced homes makes Lexington popular for families and recent retirees.

**Why You Should Move Here Now?** 

As more and more people transition to permanent remote work, Lexington has become popular due to its mix of great homes and close proximity to city amenities. With a new world class 100% fiber-optic network running throughout the city, Lexington is making strides to transition its identity from a small, midwest/southern college town into a city of the future.
