Lately, I've been thinking about moving back to Kentucky -- my brother and his wife have a child on the way, I'm pretty excited about becoming an uncle, and would love to live close to them. If I can find work in Lexington, I'll be looking for a 3 bed house in Garden Springs / Gardenside -- I've got a soft spot for those small ranch homes (especially the handful with walkout basements).

Your wants and needs are pretty different from mine, though. If you'll be doing railroad work, and want a few acres, I'd suggest looking on the outskirts of Nicholasville, or out towards Richmond or Winchester (Clark, Madison, or Jessamine Counties).
Hey cab591,

Been in AZ since 1992. Was stationed in Yuma. Shortly after getting out of the military I landed a job with BNSF. I work the run between Needles, CA and Winslow, AZ. I run a train through Flagstaff several times a week.

Arizona is a great state and has been good to be. It's time to go home. Folks are getting up there and aren't in the best of health. I miss the green, the woods and the hospitality.

Thank you everyone for the info. cab591 best of luck moving forward!
