These Kentucky Cities Are Among The Best Places For Christmas

It's the most wonderful time of the year!

Christmas is quickly approaching and many people are scrambling to get in some last minute shopping before the big day.

Things are different this year amid the pandemic and people are finding it a bit harder to celebrate the holiday between social distancing, staying home, and keeping group sizes down.

Wallethub recently released a study of the best cities for Christmas. The site compared the 100 biggest U.S. cities to determine which cities will offer a holly jolly holiday, even with the stress of the COVID-19 pandemic.

A couple of Kentucky cities made the list.

Lexington came in at number 56 on the list, placing the highest out of the Kentucky cities.

Louisville was number 60 and came in 19th overall for 'observance'.

To determine the list, Wallethub compared 100 cities across four key dimensions: safety, traditions and food, observance, and generosity. Those four dimensions were then evaluated using 15 relevant metrics such as average COVID-19 deaths per capita, Christmas tree farms per capita, share of Christian population, online giving per capita, and, of course, Christmas spirit.
