Great city with a diverse community. Very clean and easy to navigate. Excellent nightlife, music, culture and world class shopping.
Great place to grow up. Fayette County has both a city and country feeling, you can get a little taste of both. It is a wonderful place to live and experience life.
It is not a very busy place to live, and most people are nice and friendly. Very quiet and peaceful place to live in.
