Adopting the slogan "Where the city meets the country," Alexandria has become one of Kentucky's fastest-growing municipalities. Along with transportation expansions and improvement in Greater Cincinnati, the AA Highway that now cuts a swath across northern Kentucky has spurred dramatic development. The housing selection ranges from vintage farms surrounded by picturesque fields to vibrant new subdivisions and country manors on spacious acreage. Affordable land and housing have drawn many to this blend of rural and suburban flavors. Many homes feature sweeping lots that are deeply wooded for a sense of seclusion and a backdrop of natural beauty. The A.J. Jolly County Park is just south of the city, offering a golf course, camping, and swimming just minutes from the front door.
