Catrina • 4+ years in Lexington

March 15, 2026

Lexington is a great place to live, and depending on which part of the city you choose, it can be good for students, families, private individuals, people who want to be close to shopping, etc. The sky is the limit in Lexington for foodies, and if you enjoy Bourbon, this is the place to be. Traffic is abysmal at certain times of the day (especially inside the circle) but if you can drive outside rush hours, you'll be fine.

Catrina • 4+ years in Lexington

February 25, 2025

Lexington is a great place for people of all types. It is, interestingly, highly bilingual, with many Spanish-speaking residents. Public transportation throughout Lexington is not the best, and the cost of living has skyrocketed in recent years. That being said, it is very safe for a city, and while I've experienced petty theft twice, both times were because I had left my vehicle unlocked at an apartment complex. The outdoor areas are beautiful here, and there are more restaurants than you'd know what to do with. Overall, you get modern amenities with a southern touch.
