I agree with her comments. The allergies can be mitigated with local honey. Just like everywhere else. The biggest con for me, in the 2 yrs I lived there (05-07) was the aggressive push for LGBTQ inclusion. It was, I felt, very in your face millant! I moved to Ashland, KY and it is now becoming the same. I won't even go into the homeless situation in both cities. Maybe Wyoming for my next move.
Cry me a river yes Lexington makes equality a priority, and since I live in Jackson Hole part of the year I can say the same goes for Wyoming. maybe you should think about moving to a country where it is criminalized, like Botswana or Kenya. your archaic way of thinking would probably fit better with 3 world standards anyway.
So sorry that you feel that all people don't deserve rights and a life free from discrimination and bigotry. Good luck in your search for your own personal utopia.
People, the grass doesn't look blue when the wind blows. It's called bluegrass because if you let it grow it has blue flowers. So quit saying that. Please
Folks, remember that you're watching a realtor here. The biggest con she neglected to mention is the horrendous traffic flow. You will get NOWHERE in Lexington quickly. The brilliant idea of building a circle around the place with 5 spokes to get in and out of town...not so brilliant. So if you enjoy driving in a "parking lot" all the time... Then there is her point regarding "new construction inside New Circle Rd...once you get outside New Circle, you start running into horse farms, which are hallowed ground. Basically, they are packing 3 Tons of manure into a 1 ton truck.
Like most metro areas these days. ....and thank God for the horse industry tempering the growth of today's vinyl villages. Traffic and sprawl could be much worse.
@@kellydoyle7833 After 10 years military and 10 years traveling all over the country for work, I have lived in or driven in most "metro areas", and I can say with utmost confidence that considering it's small size, Lexington is THE WORST place to drive that I've encountered. I spent 16 years there, and when I go back to visit my granddaughters, it only takes me about 10 mins on the roads there to remember why I HAD to get out. Nicholasville Rd between New Circle & MOW is an absolute trainwreck.
12.2 cents per $100 is the current tax due on real estate in Fayette County. This rate is set annually by July 1, and it applies to all real property tax bills throughout Kentucky.
Look at Anderson Communities. I'm in the business. Lots of work here. Latinos make up around 11-12 % of population and are very prominent in construction, landscaping and agriculture. The horse industry is also a unique economic driver.
Lexington is nice if: you locate carefully, don’t work 9-5 job, have a nice savings account ( wealthier the more love you get from health & court system, you may need to sue your “provider”), retail sales and restaurant service), and can afford a limo driver if you want to keep your sanity! KY: Lex - don’t give signals, we ride your bumper and change lanes and merge(often without insurance), we drive dark vehicles without lights in rain, early morning and whenever lights should be on. Cell phone face is the new Southern Style. Ask any one of ten people where the continents Are, who was elected for “hanging chads”, how much an open border costs, where did the “flu” go, all for a laugh!
0:25 That is a good question- as the population ages, senior care is so important. We can do some checking into this important question and make an update! Thanks for your question! Do you live in Lexington or interested in moving to Lexington?
Lexington has a large medical presence. I am sure there are many resources for seniors. If you have a specific need let me know and I could do some checking for you!
This was a beautiful area until you all started chipping everything up into houses Everybody move on in here from everywhere now the normal local people can hardly afford to live around here anymore

Agreed. I've lived here over 50 years. It's a liberal shit hole now.

@@kellydoyle7833 so true! Growth is good to a degree but the horse farms and green spaces in Lexington set this city apart from other larger cities!

Thanks for the great info. Would the property tax be $366 for an assessed $300k house?

@@livingincentralKY Pretty good. I wonder why Michigan is so expensive.
@@Greenr0 come on down and try out the Bluegrass state! The lower cost of living and lower taxes plus the winters are so much milder here! 😊
@@livingincentralKY....and the summers are much , 10 degrees, hotter than MI.
Can you provide a few names for multi-family general contractors in the area?
@seamusmckinney5557 are you looking for a contractor for new construction or someone who does repair/remodel work?
@@livingincentralKY looking for companies to potentially work for. General contractors who build apartments would be ideal
@@seamusmckinney5557 I don’t know of any hiring specifically but I hear all the time the construction industry needs more workers.

What about medical resources for seniors?

Great medical services
pros..whiskey cons..whiskey
Have you ever been to any of the stops on the bourbon trail?
Bourbon is NOT whiskey; for whiskey go to Tennessee and sample Jack Daniels
@@livingincentralKY I made bourbon barbecue sauce and it is so good lol. I bought the bourbon from Sparta!😂
@@boogitybear2283 did you find a recipe online? Sounds delicious 😋
She is also failing to mention our newest residents by the thousands is the immigrants they are dumping here
Strange live in Lexington I haven’t seen many immigrants
