City Classes
Kentucky cities are divided into six classes based on their population. Over 400 classification-related laws affect public safety, alcohol beverage control, revenue options and others. Lexington and Fayette County merged to create an urban county government (UCG) and Louisville merged with Jefferson County to create a metro government. However, Lexington and Louisville retain their pre-merger classification.[1]
The Kentucky General Assembly has historically only reclassified cities when requested by the city government. If all cities were reclassified according to actual population, about 25% of classifications would change.[1] In particular, Lexington would be a Class 1 city. As a result of 2011 legislation, the following classification changes took effect on June 8, 2011[2]
- Greensburg (5 to 4)
- Guthrie (5 to 4)
- Junction City (5 to 4)
- Midway (5 to 4)
- Pikeville (3 to 4)
- Sadieville (6 to 5)
- Wurtland (6 to 5)
