Be sure to check out J.

Did you know that Kentucky was the first state west of the Appalachians? The state was also one of the border states in the Civil War and is home to the Hatfield and Kentucky feud.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5) Things to do<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No matter your interest, there\u2019s always something to do in Kentucky. If you love cars, visit Swope\u2019s Cars of Yesteryear and learn about vehicles from the early 1900s to the 1960s. Or suppose you&#8217;ve always wanted to know more about Richardsonian Romanesque architecture. In that case, you&#8217;ll find an excellent example at the Conrad-Caldwell House Museum, located in the heart of Louisville\u2019s Victorian district. Or, check out the Mary Todd Lincoln House to explore the home of Abraham Lincoln&#8217;s first lady. You also can&#8217;t miss the longest-running horse race globally, the Kentucky Derby.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Methodology:\u00a0<\/strong>Median home sale price data was pulled from the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/us-housing-market\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"exclude\">US Housing Market<\/a> resource during June 2023.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Known as the &#8220;Bluegrass State,&#8221;
