Bardstown's Kim Huston is passionate about small town life. In her new book, "Small Town Sexy," she reveals why residents love their not-so-big-city lifestyle and how small town charms are seducing newcomers. Huston speaks from experience, as small town girl who cherishes her roots -- and as a professional who is helping develop her town’s economic prosperity.
“Small towns aren’t just for small businesses anymore. The internet has made sure of that,” says Huston. “Towns joining the wired world of technology realize that you don’t need an office tower in Big City USA to do a million dollar deal, you can do it from Main Street USA.”
The romance reaches beyond business interests. Says Huston, “There are 20 to 40 year-olds coming back home with a real desire to raise their families in communities similar to where they grew up. And, retirees are drawn to many small towns that have the climate, recreational opportunities and accessibility to highways and airports that they are seeking.”
