Is there a predominant religion in Kentucky? If so what denomination?

Is it very windy? It is sooooo windy where I live right now and where I used to live. I would be very pleased to finally live in a place where there aren't gales all winter and spring.

"Ky" is waaaay different than Louisville. Louisville is about equal 1/3 Catholic and 1/3 Baptist. The rest are atheist or a mix of everything. There is a sizable Jewish community for a southern city, with around 12,000 Jewish and I think around 7 synagogues. There are also now several Islamic mosques, and I think a couple areas which serve Buddhist and Hindus.

The average annual wind speed in Louisville is around 16mph which is actually more than I would think. Most of the time(unless storming) it's usually a nice breeze. Nothing crazy

NOAA puts, Louisville wind average at less than 8mph. Where are you getting 16? Anything over 10 starts to look good for wind power and its not a viable option for this part of the country.

Good. I'd just as soon not have to see wind turbines on every hill.

Kentucky is primarily Southern Baptist / Evangelical Protestant, Louisville would be the exception.
