A commonwealth located in the Southeastern United States (excluding north of Louisville which is considered the Midwest) known for fried chicken, the Kentucky Derby and bourbon. They have two colleges that are well known for their basketball programs (Louisville and Kentucky) that had a deep rivalry since the 1800s. The location of Kentucky is quite controversial however. Yankees call it a Southern state, but southerners call it a Midwestern state due to its location and the fact that they didn't secede from the Union. I personally consider most of the commonwealth apart of the south, but this varies from person to person. Louisville, Lexington and Bowling Green are the state's biggest cities and the state has 120 counties total which is the 4th highest in the US behind Texas (254), Georgia (159) and Virginia (133). Most of the people here are pretty nice, however, some areas can have some dry patches. I would recommend visiting here during the late spring through mid/late fall because that's when most things are open.
