    Utica, Kentucky

    It's Tiny!

    Utica Kentucky is located ten miles south of Owensboro on the Ohio border. There's not much going on in this small town of 500 but they do have a post office. They also have a fire station, several churches, and a market called "JR's." It may not be the most happening town in the US but at least they have bluegrass!
