    "there are no side walks so walking anywhere is sketch. people drive way to fast on back roads so you can't walk along the road"

    "I lived in the area for the past 8 years-Pleasant area to live in!"
  • MarcusW
    "Small town, Benton Middle was rated as the 5th best middle school in the state. The Elementary School system was rated 10th in the state. No night life or shopping to speak of in Benton you need to drive 20 miles to Murray, or 30 to Paducah. Lakes region is a major draw. Bass and Crappie fishing on KY lake and hunting are primary recreational outlets. Golf in the region is another plus. Great place to raise a family. "
