Jackson
6.4
Lower score (below 6)
McKee is a county seat of 900 in one of eastern Kentucky's poorest and most isolated counties. Jackson County sits in the Appalachian foothills but lacks even the coalfield economy that gave some neighboring counties historical weight. The population is overwhelmingly white, deeply evangelical, and entirely composed of people whose families have been there for generations. There's no social infrastructure for an outsider, and the insularity here runs very deep.
