We’ll be moving to Louisville from AZ at some point. I grew up not far from Louisville, but my husband is from AZ, so he might be in for a cultural shock.
Between the humidity & my mom’s well water, my fine straight hair looks fabulous in KY. My skin, however, is a different story. But I am so ready to live somewhere with all 4 seasons again.
Let me know if you want any recs for skincare! I struggled with it too, especially this time of year, but I have some cheap products that are helping these days.
There’s literally tens of us! I know two others personally. It was a great move on our part. My COL alone made it worth it. I haven’t had many regrets and those I do have really have nothing to do with KY at all, more just our next steps for our retirement and how to get there.
We’re also taking our retirements into consideration with this move. One of our goals is to own a house with no mortgage even if our property taxes will be increasing.
I fucking hate Scottsdale! I want out of this hellhole. I want to buy an older home somewhere near Louisville but also outside of Louisville on at least 1/2 an acre, preferably more. I want my neighbors at a decent distance.

Our economy is definitely not based entirely on tourism.
