We always bring our guests to the reenactment - they are always quite impressed - it is awesome to see. On October 8, 1862, the Civil War Battle of Perryville raged near the town of Perryville, Kentucky. After five hours of fighting, more than 7,500 soldiers were killed. Cannonballs and bullets struck local homes and nearly every building and barn served as a hospital for the suffering troops. Drawings and signatures of wounded soldiers remain on local walls. This battle was the South's final attempt to take Kentucky for the Confederacy and was the largest fight on Kentucky soil. Each year, on the weekend close to the actual battle, the Perryville Re-enactment and Commemoration Weekend is held at the Perryville Battlefield. The re-enactment events are held on 600 acres of pristine Battlefield site, as well as in the historic town of Perryville, where Merchants Row stands much as it did in 1862 when the Confederate and Union armies clashed on October 8. For more information about Perryville and the Civil War Battle of 1862 check out the web site of Perryville dot net.

FAQs: How far away is civilization? we are within one days drive of 75% of the US population. Hard to imagine, but true. Danville, Kentucky is in the heart of it all. and with no traffic jams - 10 miles usually means 10 minutes. With thousands of square miles of rolling, Kentucky bluegrass around you, you are still less than a few miles to: Starbucks, a Wal-Mart Super Center, an 8 plex theatre, Hampton Inn, Holiday Inn Express, Country Hearth Motel, Best Western, 2 Chinese Restaurants, one Chinese Jumbo Buffet, Western Sizzlin, Reno's Texas Steakhouse, McDonalds, Dairy Queen, Kroger Super Center (supermarket)...

Our Chamber of Commerce is 450 members strong. Danville is open for business. More below... Looking to start a business? Here is some information from the DowntownDanville . com site regarding opportunities: • Danville Drives Retail Demand - Retail sales across the City of Danville increased by about 51.6% between 1992 and 1997 (rising from $207.1 million to $314.0 million). Not surprisingly, sales across all of Boyle County experienced a similar increase of 48.7%, rising from $223.2 million to $331.9 million. The sales growth in Danville has clearly driven Boyle County retail sales. • Significant Retail Sales are Leaking from the Regional Market - There is an estimated $97.5 million in retail sales potential being un-captured by existing merchants in Danville and Boyle County. There is an estimated $22.5 million in leaked food/grocery sales from Danville. This is followed by an approximate $19.6 million in restaurant sales and then by $16.7 million in alcohol sales (both consumption at home and away from home). Retail sales leakage for certain specialty retail such as records, books, videos and other home entertainment amounts to an estimated $6.8 million. • Downtown Could Recapture Share of Sales Leakage - At a conservative 25.0% recapture rate, Danville could support another 23,600 square feet of restaurant space, another 18,400 square feet of grocery space, 10,800 square feet of furniture, furnishings and appliance stores and more than 8,500 square feet of home entertainment space including book stores, records/CDs and other audio and video. It is unlikely that a "new" grocery store would locate in Danville and build an 18,400 Square foot store as typical, modern groceries are in excess of 40,000 square feet. • New Business Opportunities - The City of Danville could potentially support an additional 19 to 37 new retail establishments. These range from a low of one new children's clothing store or shoe store to a high of an additional nine new restaurants. The high demand for restaurants will continue to grow. tons more info here - DanvilleKentucky . com Lake Herrington is just on the other side of Danville - great place to boat, jet-ski, fish, waterski, etc - the lake is 32 miles long and just 10 minutes away, not a bad deal!

(photos by JeffRogers and DanDry) Back to the Harrodsburg/Danville/Perryville area _____________________________________________________ How is the cost of living in the Harrodsburg / central Kentucky area? Cost of living is, what I consider, some of the lowest in the country. Groceries are similar to most parts of the country as is gasoline, etc. However, for most people taxes and insurance are some of their greatest expenses. Property tax rates are approximately .0092- example a new home on a few acres worth $100,000- taxes are $920 per year. Insurance companies vary, but we have some of the lowest insurance rates in the country. Electric is another great deal here. We have two different electricity providers - depending on area - it is either 3.9 cents or 5.2 cents per kWh (2004 rates). Are there opportunities in the area? There are many opportunities here. There are not enough services for the population that we have. A lot of people like to work at the college, factories or hospital here because of the benefits. Which leaves a huge opportunity for service businesses and tourism is big here also. Jobs - pay may be lower here compared to NY or CA, but expenses are way lower. I personally think the lifestyle is far better here. Ours is. Without exorbitant expenses, you are given many freedoms and opportunities to spend this extra cash on yourself or your future. We talk about costs of living, but quality of life is more important to us here. The Bluegrass region has spectacular landscape and scenery and we are close to great antique shopping, all of historic bourbon distilleries, several wineries and several cities. There is always a day trip or weekend trip to enjoy. just 18 miles away is Award-Winning, Talon Winery - what a glorious place images courtesy of Award-Winning, Gold Medal Talon Winery and then there's Elk Creek Vineyards nearby - along with 18 others images courtesy of Elk Creek Vineyards and of course, there are the Bourbon distilleries! We are becoming known as the Napa Valley of Bourbon and here's why - Bourbon is Kentucky and we are rapidly becoming the tourist attraction to the younger crowd. Boomers are interested in Wine, but Gen Xers are now more interested in Distilled Spirits and we are in the right place at the right time.

Our local scholastic program has one of the top rankings in the state and can be compared to any school system in the country. We have many people who move to the area and do this comparison and they are satisfied to impressed. Boyle County High's Football program has something to be proud of. They have only lost two games in the past four years. According to statistics, that makes the Boyle County's football team, the best high-school football team in national history. There will be a lot of offers of scholarships coming our way. For more info http://www.boyle.k12.ky.us/ Also see http://apps.kde.state.ky.us/report%5Fcard/ for all schools report card. A lot of people ask us about the area weather. Originally from the NorthEast, I think this is a weather bargain. All four seasons, none too harsh or long. I often get asked if we have snow. Sometimes yes, some years no. When we do get snow, it is usually 2" or 3", 2 or 3 times a year and it lasts for 2 or 3 days. That is a fair answer. No hurricanes, no crazy weather like that. Are there any restrictions for Horses or Cattle? Of course not! We are in Horse and Cattle country here and a lot of people who live in the country will have a horse to ride, cow to raise, a few chickens, etc. You can have animals if you desire.

The wooded area towards the right of the picture is 11. I cleaned the undergrowth of woods out now, all the trees are there, but now it looks like a park - Perfect building site and the views to Danville are unreal. The hay bales are on 15 and 16.

Magazine features Danville as place to retire HOUSTON - Where to Retire magazine, the only magazine in America geared to helping people with retirement relocation, has selected Danville to profile as a top retirement spot in its January/February issue. According to editor Alan Fox, Danville has many of the qualities that are important to today's retirees. "Historic and scenic Danville is a Kentucky Certified Retirement Community. Full of country charm with rolling hills, sprawling horse farms and recreational opportunities on lakes, rivers and streams, Danville is ideal for nature lovers. Centre College and the Community Arts Center draw entertainment like touring Broadway shows, concerts, lectures and numerous festivals. Several area colleges also offer continuing education classes. With five districts on the National Register of Historic Places, a thriving cultural scene and plenty of outdoor activities, Danville offers retirees a well-rounded lifestyle," Fox said. Each year, 700,000 Americans move to new towns to retire. Generally healthier, better educated and more affluent than retirees who stay put, relocating retirees bring significant economic benefits to their new states and home towns. Nationally, two dozen states and hundreds of towns seek to attract retirees as a source of economic development. Where to Retire magazine was launched in 1992 with the goal of helping its readers find the ideal place to retire. It has a national circulation of 220,000.

You can see below the 4 inches +/- per month average of rain that usually comes in short bursts, then the sun comes out. With plenty of water and abundant sunshine - it is no wonder how we keep these rolling, bluegrass fields so lush and green. What about Financing?
