Happy Valentine’s Day, Lexington. ❤️
Throughout the past few issues, we asked, “What do you love about living in Lexington?” Today we’re sharing the love + your responses.
“I love the uniqueness of our city — from the culinary and music scenes to our beautiful and productive Bluegrass farmland. Lexington has the vibrancy of a big city with easy access to community connections for people from all walks of life.” — Reader Ashleigh M.
“I tell people ‘Lexington is my happy place right in the middle.’ It’s not a major metropolis, and it’s not a little podunk town, either. It’s just the right size. Just perfect.” — Reader Debbie J.
“Lexington is a city with a small-town vibe, but not small enough to where everyone knows everyone. Horses, bourbon, and basketball... What more could you want?”— Reader Amanda S.
“I love everything about it. The beauty, sports, the great healthcare, beautiful homes, history, and great restaurants.” — Reader Bob H.
“Having lived around the world and this country… Lexington is the best and easiest place to give your children an easy, fun, safe + mostly care-free childhood. I know that not everyone has kids- but this also translates to adults —- it’s just easy living here.” — Reader Michelle C.
