What's it like living in Bowling Green, KY - Smiths Grove, KY

[@lisacalhoun8080]

Thank you for this video! I’m considering moving to BG from out of state, so I find this information really valuable.

[@HershNoeie]

Glad it was helpful!

[@tedthilly1934]

Moving down to smiths grove in a few years from Chicago nice report on your area

[@kiannaknox1610]

I live 30 minutes from Bg !! I was born in Bg so it feels like my hometown

[@gavvuo9721]

Hello. I live in Bowling Green and I go to Bowling Green and I love it.

[@kellydragna7632]

Thanks so much for the video. I was born in Glasgow, KY., but grew up in California. I have been in the area in decades. I pulled videos out of curiosity as to what going on in the area.

[@HershNoeie]

My nephew and his family live in Glasgow, KY. Yes the area has changed some, but still pretty much the same. Glad you enjoyed the video. When I am back there again, I will be sure to capture more stuff.

[@rich3821]

I'm in the process of relocating from Marietta, GA to Kentucky. Your video has made me take a second look at the possibility of moving to Bowling Green instead of some of the larger cities. Also like the fact it's also close to Nashville, TN.

[@HershNoeie]

Bowling Green is a really great city. Not big or even medium sized, bust just under medium sized. You have all the things there that you will need, minus air service. For that Nashville is not too far away.

[@igorrosales1799]

I'm going there next month (BG)

[@youshoodjump]

my brother, love my city BG!!! glad you are doing well!!

[@HershNoeie]

BG is pretty cool. Thank you so much, I am feeling great!

I live in Bowling Green Kentucky and went to school for a while in Smiths Grove or my dad was principal of North Warren

[@HershNoeie]

Awesome, I loved North Warren. The kids use to say it was haunted..not sure if it was.

[@TeeShawt]

@@HershNoeie My grandmother recently retired from being a night shift custodian from North Warren. She said she had her experiences for her to believe it was haunted. She worked there for over 20 years I believe.

[@wilsonpicket8505]

Thank you. We are moving there in October.

[@johnhukle7606]

Great video Sir. I lived in B.G. from 1972 until 1992. I went to Bowling Green city schools 2nd grade - 10th grade. After my sophomore year I transfered to the now defunct private school Potter Christian. I graduated from Potter in 1983. I grew up in Springhill subdivision off Russellville Rd.! In late 1983 a few months after I graduated from high school my folks sold our house and moved to Louisville. I decided to stay in B.G. and attend WKU. From the end of 1983 until around the end 1992 I lived in various places in town. I have lived in PFT,13th and college s.t. the Castle ,Collegeview drive,Rockcreek apartments and a few other places. I moved to Danville K.y. at the end of 1992 because of a job opportunity. I have missed living in Bowling Green since the day I left. I do get back home 4 or 5 times a year. Hopefully one day I can live there again. Once again thanks for the video. Merry Christmas...

[@HershNoeie]

Awesome story. You know BG is one of those cities that you can move away from, but still constantly think about it. I haven't lived there is 20 years now, but still read the newspaper online everyday. I still keep up with the city and like you I go back every now and then to visit family. I didn't appreciate the city much when I was growing up, but now I see the value of the city and miss it. Merry Christmas to you as well and thank you for watching!

[@johnhukle7606]

@@HershNoeie you're exactly right. Did you go to Warren East high school? If so what year did you graduate?

[@HershNoeie]

@@johnhukle7606 Yes I did go to Warren East. I graduated in 1996.

@@HershNoeie How do winters compare in Bowling Green versus Seattle. Which one feels warmer in winter?

[@HershNoeie]

@@scholarlyanalyst7700 It is warmer in winter here in Seattle, WA vs BG, KY. Also Bowling Green gets more snow than here and more often.

[@scholarlyanalyst7700]

@@HershNoeie It's soooo boring that you're from Seattle BECAUSE when I tell people there are Canadian cities and towns that get warmer winters than their southern city, they are surprised (or SHOCKED). But you living in Seattle probably already know that. OR...at least aren't shocked by it!

[@BBGames_YT]

I also live in BG. A few relatives live in smiths grove and I used to live there when I was younger.

[@betulah7146]

That’s crazy, I’m from Seattle deciding between BG and Albuquerque

[@zachbuchanan3312]

I like how they r trying to get downtown developed more. I think a city’s downtown should be the biggest. I hate going on Campbell lane or Scott’sville road because the traffic is so bad but everything is there so you have to go

[@HershNoeie]

Yes most things are on Scottsville Rd, and the problem is other roads leading out from there are getting bad too. Campbell Lane, use to be a basic road, now look at it. Nashville Road was not that busy. IDK how it was when the old mall was active, but when I was in college it wasn't that bad. Now that many businesses are trying to get as close as they can to Scottsville Road, that section of town is bad with traffic. It is good that downtown is starting to beef up.

[@zachbuchanan3312]

@@HershNoeie yep. They are also developing an absolute ton on lovers lane. My dad owns the tree farm on the corner by IGA and the exit and our land is like the only piece of land on lovers lane left that hasn’t been sold and made into a neighborhood or apartment complex

[@HershNoeie]

@@zachbuchanan3312 Yeah that massive soccer complex gobbled up a lot of land there. They expanded the road over there so I knew massive development wasn't far behind.

My 12 grade English teacher went to college in Bowling Green Kentucky.

[@HershNoeie]

That is awesome. Small world!

Living in clarksville about to relocate to Bg

[@ATVtherapy]

Moved from Michigan to smiths grove. I love it here I can’t wait for it to get a real grocery store tho.

[@HershNoeie]

They had the Cee Bee store for the longest time. It was an actual grocery store and was very hometown style. The new IGA to me feels like a Super Convenience Store....lol. Smiths Grove has changed so much recently. I never really witness construction of any sort there when I was a kid up to an adult.

[@kataya61]

I went to North Warren there

[@danduke7440]

You have the IGA next to the Truck Stop

[@ATVtherapy]

DAN DUKE yeah but it’s expensive!

[@tedthilly1934]

How’s the fishing in that area

[@HershNoeie]

Tons of places to fish in the BG area. I haven't lived there in about 20 years but go back very often.

[@ReturnJaguar]

Have considered multiple times to establish there. How do with storm over a month ago

[@HershNoeie]

The storm really destroyed big parts of the city. Thry are actively rebuilding. Most of the city is fine to my understanding.

[@andy7889]

I'm surprised you don't have a southern accent !

[@HershNoeie]

Haha same. I guess because I watched too much TV when I was younger, that it helped influence my language.
