    I recently moved to rural Green County- half hour south of E-Town, all the way from Oregon! I commute to E-town every week for groceries and supplies. As inexpensive as Elizabethtown is for its size, property prices are FAR cheaper out here in the rural, and it's more beautiful and peaceful... But you've got to be OK with a small drive to get your goods. Well worth it, I payed cash for my house and land, and I'm on a limited income. My place has a partially forested acre, beautiful and quiet except being on hwy 61. I payed for an acre, but enjoy the privacy of 20+ acres. I like Elizabethtown, especially the newer part. I consider it a 'right-sized' town, but I'm glad I'm just 1/2hour from it- Just my preference. Bowling Green seems very nice if it weren't for all the tornados! I love Corvettes. All in all, I feel Kentucky is a relatively underappreciated gem, and that makes it one of the best decisions of my life!

    Was fun to watch this.. was feeling nostalgic about my E'town days back in the mid 80s-early 90s. I remember walking to Hardin Central every day to school and riding my bike all over town. Was just talking to some old friends about how all of the cornfields and woods got replaced by neighborhoods. It's been a long time since I've been there though, it's probably even more different now.

    I've a special memory with E-Town ! Back in 1995, on my way to Minnesota from Mobile,Alabama, I missed my greyhound bus while it stopped for rest room, snacks break, I can clearly recall that bus stop was on a straight forest road with just a cafe . When I returned from restroom, literally 10 mins later, bus was already gone . Next bus was after few hours towards Louiville . I was kinda scared as a19 year old like what to do next ? Anyways called a taxi from payphone and checked-into a motel, ordered dominos delivered by a beautiful girl aaahhh... I still remeber her. Watched cable TV, Forest gump on HBO , then took cab again to bus stop then the journey continued towards MN .

    We traveled to the danville / liberty / Harrodsburg last year . Love kentucky. Is Elizabethtown and the say 40 mile radius surrounding similar in Land / farming and cost to the areas we looked ? We are escaping central New mexico soon. Happy trails from Edgewood New Mexico.

    Biggest Con ( for me that is) is restaurants and verity of restaurants. Mexican, Japanese,, Chinese, Thai, Indian and so on, they’re beyond horrible! I’ve tried most of every Mexican restaurant that e-town has to offer and it’s just really disappointing to say the least. Well, coming from San Diego and LA being a hop skip and jump away and Tijuana literally down the street, Mexican food was amazing. Sorry to be so blunt but if the restaurants here was half this bad in San Diego? They would most likely close in a short few months. And the verity of restaurants are very limited.
    One thing I do agree 100%, this is a great place to raise a family. People here are generally nice, respectful and polite. Once in a blue moon, you’ll come across some of these bad apples but not as bad as where I just came from.
    Aside from the disappointment from extremely limited family entertainment and/or basically things to do here, in my opinion, the safety and security what this town provides supersedes all that. My family is adjusting but we’re happy! Can’t put a price tag on that.
    Ps- what’s with the people here driving like they all own a Lamborghini? Old or young, most exceeds the speed limit. I was actually really shocked how everyone here speeds. Cops too!

    Speaking as someone who lived in E-town for many years. THE WORST by far is the Gossip. People there are just terrible for being Gossips. Also the contractors over charge shamelessly, are crocked and take advantage of the elderly. Worst place I have ever lived. I will never go back.
