Real Estate Owensboro - KY
Owensboro Real Estate Information

Owensboro is a thriving cultural and industrial city in the western edge Kentucky. It's about an hour outside of Frankfort, and two hours to Cincinnati and Nashville. The city proper is located on the shore of the Ohio River. It's the third largest city in the State of Kentucky.

The Owensboro-Daviess county area is known to have the best schools in America. Students always score high against the national average! Factor in the low cost of living, and you'll never want to set foot in a smoggy metropolitan city again! Housing, utilitiy costs, and shopping indices are all well below the national average.

Employment is plentiful in Owensboro too. Close to 50,000 people in the region work within the county. Of these, only a measly 15% work for the countrie's top ten private employers.

As a cultural hotspot, Owensboro is known as the "City of Festivals". Summer months are jam-packed with great events. The biggest such event is the International Bar-B-Q Festival which takes place in the downtown district the second weekend of May. Hungry men roam the streets looking to sample the finest cullinary delights like mutton, chicken, and burgoo served by teams entered into competition. It's also a hub for music, rides, and arts and crafts.
