About Kentucky

This edition covers the real Kentucky outside the Cincinnati metro's northern border counties, which already have their own dedicated coverage. Louisville, in Jefferson County, is Kentucky's largest city, home to UPS's global air-cargo hub (Worldport) and a real logistics economy built around it. Lexington, in Fayette County, anchors the Bluegrass region's horse and bourbon industries. Frankfort, in Franklin County, is the state capital. Bowling Green, in Warren County, is the only place in the world where the Chevrolet Corvette is manufactured. None of these are the Cincinnati border counties, and this edition doesn't treat them as smaller versions of that edition.
