Harrison County, KY Intelligence
Harrison County sits in the Outer Bluegrass about 30 minutes northeast of Lexington, with Cynthiana (41031) as the seat on the South Fork of the Licking River. Nestle Purina's Cynthiana plant is the marquee employer and stabilizes a small manufacturing base that also includes 3M and a network of distillery-adjacent ag operations. Growing Lexington commuter demand has tightened the housing market noticeably, and Harrison shows Bluegrass-tier home values well above its Eastern KY neighbors despite its small population.
