Is Louisville a nice city?
People in Louisville and Northern Kentucky are either incredibly nice, or as unpleasant and surly as people you’ll meet in the urban Northeast—maybe more so. I would describe the vibes of those places as schizophrenic. Frankly, Angelenos are friendlier and have more personality than the ice-cold Louisvillians and painfully-Ohio-wannabe Northern Kentuckians.
Is the University of Kentucky a good research hospital?
The University of Kentucky hospital is one of the best research hospitals in the South. General healthcare in Kentucky, however, has been gradually going downhill in terms of quality over the last 20 years. (This may be a more of a national problem.) The hospitals in the rural area of the state where I grew up had Cornell-, U. of Kentucky-, and Yale-educated doctors just 25 years ago. Today, the struggle to recruit doctors is real, and the nurses have clearly gone downhill in terms of their attitudes and the quality of their education and training. (At least, that’s the way it seems, and this may also be a nationwide problem.)
Is Kentucky undereducated?
Further more, the population are generally undereducated and insular. Some that have degrees from UK, UofL and WKU think they’re the “bee’s knees” because they have college degrees, and Kentucky has one of the lowest passport ownership rates in the USA, and likely one of the lowest rates in the developed world. A trip to Hilton Head Island, Chicago, or Destin is exotic for many Kentuckians (then again, Americans in general get less time off work than many in the developed world).
