About Caneyville

Caneyville is a quiet rural community in Grayson County with a population of around 500 residents. It offers a relaxed, small-town pace with convenient road connections. U.S. Route 62 and the Western Kentucky Parkway both run through the area, putting Leitchfield just a 15-minute drive away for shopping, dining, and healthcare. Outdoor recreation is also close by, with Rough River Dam State Resort Park located roughly 14 miles north for weekend boating, fishing, and camping.

Locals enjoy a tight-knit atmosphere anchored by neighborhood schools and community events. Younger students attend Caneyville Elementary right in town, and families make frequent use of the park's ballfields, playground, and walking trail. The town is also turning its historic former high school into a new community center. Every October, residents gather for the annual Caneyville Fair and Homecoming, a long-standing tradition that brings neighbors together for food, games, and local pride.
