Great for a visitor, local amenities are great, nightlife and recreation and touristy things are authentic and, well... awesome. However, living here, some things can be a pain. Particularly traffic. Driving in Lexington is terrible for a city its size. Since there's no major interstate that loops the city like 264 and 265 do for Louisville, everyone is on the same roads, and it makes driving miserable. Also there's a huge amount of construction that causes even more headaches. A lot of this could be credited to the population and economic boom. However, all told, the atmosphere is great, the people are friendly, and for a major city (expectations by default would be pretty low), it's pretty safe, and has good public services. The culture is pretty neat too. It's an up-and-coming city, and will probably improve as time goes on.

Affordable housing options I WAS RECETNLY SCOUTING AFFORDABLE HOUSING OPTIONS IN SOUTH LEXINGTON FOR A SINGLE INDIVIDUAL. I MAY RETIRE INLEXINGTON. I CAME ACROSS A CONDO COMMUNITY CALLED WELLINGTON CHASE JUST OFF OF CLAYS MILL ROAD & JUST SOUTH OF NEW CIRCLE ROAD. CAN ANYONE GIVE ME THEIR OPINION OF THAT SMALL COMPLEX. ACCESS TO DOWNTOWN, SHOPPING, LIBRARIES, ETC. IS IMPORTANT TO ME.
