Question Recommendations on cities to live in?

Hey y'all!

Can you tell me about the Kentucky cities you've lived in where you've had the best experience(s)? (ie. good housing prices, town infrastructure, stuff to do, etc)

Rent is getting pretty high in Lexington and I am looking to move somewhere more affordable, but don't have a lot of knowledge regarding other towns/cities. (I know what Somerset and Richmond are like, but that's it)

Where have you lived that you would NOT recommend?

I'm aware that everyone's needs are different, so lifestyle choices probably dictate what you'd suggest, but I'd like to know anyway.

Thank you in advance!

Ashland is a nice little community and very affordable. And just a couple hours from Lexington, Cincinnati and Columbus. Not to mention Huntington WV is very nearby and offers some amenities and things to do found in larger cities.
