Seriously? The Kentucky side of the state line is Cincinnati suburbs. It's not that hard to understand. Most of the people that live there work in Cincinnati. All that separates them is a bridge.

Counties across from Cincy - KY has like 120 counties so they are smaller than most
Boone County KY = 118,811
Kenton County KY = 159,720
Campbell County KY = 90,336
Gallatin County KY = 8,589
Grant County KY = 24,662
Pendleton County KY = 14,877
Bracken County KY = 8,488
Total = ~ 425 K

Golden Triangle = Cincinnati / Louisville / Lexington and most of the population lives in this triangle. Folks may live several counties away but work in one of these 3 cities. It is only about an hour from Lexington to Louisville and about 1.5 hours from Lexington to Cincinnati (with that 1/2 hour being the time to drive the 5 miles before and after the bridge).

ps, the Cincinnati International Airport is actually in Kentucky as is the Aquarium for the Cincinnati area. UK has played in Paul Brown (Bengals Stadium) and Bengals training camp was in Georgetown just outside of Lexington. UK basketball used to play a "home" game in Cincinnati and Louisville every year during the regular season.
