Knox
6.5
Lower score (below 6)
Barbourville is a small Appalachian city of 3,200 in a county of 31,000 with Union College — a small private Methodist school — as its main institutional anchor. The college gives the town slightly more cultural texture than a comparable county seat without one, but it's a very small school in a very poor county. The Knox County economy was historically based on coal and is now extremely thin. The social environment is insular and economically stressed.
