The Professor Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 I’d like to see a few of the smaller counties merge, namely the one I live in. Owsley County has 4,000 population and the school district has about 750 K-12. Kentucky has too many counties. Combining Owsley and Lee, who’s county seats of Booneville and Beattyville are just 10 miles separate, would be logical. Even with a merger the new county would have only 10,000. The new high school, if they chose to build one, would have an enrollment of approximately 500. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
