Kentucky itself is divided up into several different regions. This is probably closest to what I learned growing up.



Instead, in the Outer Bluegrass was The Knobs, Cumberland Plateau was Appalachian, and the Mississippi Plateau was the Pennyroyal.

Bama would have the Northern Plateau, Central Appalachian ridge, Southwest Gulf Coast, Southeast Plains. All very different geographically

That's cool. I've never seen that break down of Kentucky before. I didn't realiz how many different regions there are within the state.



Knoxville is on the edge of the Ridge and Valley and Blue Ridge sub regions I guess. The R&V & Cumberland plateau is surrounded by ridges between 1 - 3,500 ft. in elevation and border counties that are in the Blue Ridge section with mountains at 6k ft. + Definitely deep Appalachia
