@@OnViewCation sorry I missed your comment but I have no favorite spot because I can be anywhere here and just awed by its beauty. I call “heaven on earth” it in my own term “😊
@@tomlehr861 compared with the housing in Rochester, NY., I find housing here to be more expensive. For some reason the demand for houses is high while there just limited “for sale houses.” thus, houses sell rather quickly but the upside is that property tax is much lower than in NY and sales tax is only 6% . I’m sure you can find a house that you want if you just keep looking. Congratulations and Good luck on your retirement!
Lexington is the prettiest town I’ve ever seen and can’t wait to move there next month of May. Having the University of Kentucky there is such an added bonus! I love Rupp Arena and Commonwealth Stadium!
You didn't mention The International Museum of the Horse, a major attraction at the Kentucky Horse Park. Also checkout Old Friends Farm in Georgetown, home to many great retired thoroughbred race horses. Go to Keeneland when they are racing, during the spring or fall meet usually Thursday through Sunday.
If you were to ask a local where Versailles was based on your pronunciation no one would know what you're talking about. We pronounce it the way it's spelled, "Ver-sales".
That tells me that the poster has never been here. No way he's seen the "castle" or Woodford Reserve and still pronounces it like it was a suburb of Paris.
hate to break it to ya little guy, but when California is by far the most populous state in the country, there are going to be Californian transplants everywhere. and by the way, Kentucky has a Democrat governor right now, so i’m sure you’d be much happier in Abbottland.
The script writer may be from Kentucky, but the guy in the voice-over sure as heck isn't. He mispronounced waaaay too many Kentucky words, there, and everyone knows Owensboro is the appropriate place for Kentucky-specific BBQ.
@@dustjunky2000 We also pronounce the town to the northeast of Lexington "Pear-iss" -- do you think we have to change it to "Pah-ree" just because the French do, when no other English speakers do?

I always stop through to lay flowers at the grave of my childhood favorite actor Jim Varney. God bless his soul forever. We lost him far too early. ❤️
Truly, may Jim find peace. Which city/location would you like us to cover next?
We moved here from upastae NY and we are loving it. We're staying for good, no regrets...
Fun stuff, we're happy to know that you're loving Lexington! What is your favorite spot there?
Im retired, is housing affordable?

Hope you see this- how do you like it there?

True

Also home of Mary Todd Lincoln
Me and my wife want to move here from Texas to escape the Californian transplants, but worry it’s also full of them as well.

You mispronounced Versailles ...
No French pronunciation. We in Kentucky pronounce it our way.
The script writer may be from Kentucky, but the guy in the voice-over sure as heck isn't. He mispronounced waaaay too many Kentucky words, there, and everyone knows Owensboro is the appropriate place for Kentucky-specific BBQ.
Yeah it’s pronounced HEEDley not HEADley.
Wait how far is this from the hood?
It's called (Ver-Sail) not (Ver-Si).
You ain't from here are you? Lol
Versailles is pronounced vur-SIGH. Just because everyone in KY pronounces it wrong doesn't change its proper pronunciation.
@@dustjunky2000 most Americans think everything is American.. goodluck teaching them that lol
That's how is actually pronounced.. Everyone here actually says it wrong including me lol
@@dustjunky2000 I think that’s how French people pronounce the place…😊

The best thing to do is not go.
