Few places can match the overall appeal of Owensboro,.....where restaurants are opening at a dizzying pace,.....where along the Ohio River come Friday evenings you'll hear the live strains of country, jazz, or rock tunes intertwined with the "clippity clop" of horses hooves pulling carriages filled with onlookers,.....where casual strolls can lead to good buys, even great finds, of antiques, accessories and artwork. We guarantee that you will find a wealth of activities, friendly people, and a vibrant quality of life in our community.
