Mount Washington: Finding a Place to Call Home 5 rating By Anonymous ( May 23, 2018) Living in Mount Washington has been an entirely pleasurable experience. I find the beautiful Kentucky landscapes to be mesmerizing, and they were certainly a factor in my decision to move here. Coming from smoggy Southern California, I did not know what to expect when I first vis ...Read More ited here. The vast differences in climate alone were an interesting change for me. At this point in my life, I am completely comfortable dealing with cold winter weather.

Mount Washington has an astonishingly low crime rate compared to the rest of Kentucky, and I can always feel safe letting my kids go outside to play, a luxury that many people living in dangerous areas cannot afford. The best areas around Mount Washington to find exciting nightlife are not too far away in Lousiville. We do however, have plenty of local restaurants serving delicious food. I very much enjoy being close enough to the big city where I can drive there with ease, but far enough to enjoy quiet evenings on the front porch. Should you find yourself in Kentucky, be sure to stop by Mount Washington to get a glimpse into our small town life. Read Less
