About Pleasant Ridge

Pleasant Ridge is a quiet, welcoming community tucked into the rolling countryside of western Kentucky, right along the border of Daviess and Ohio counties. Originally settled in the late 1700s as a country crossroads, the area has maintained its peaceful rural charm for generations. Today, with a population of around 600 people, it offers wide-open spaces, scenic farmland views, and a friendly, unhurried atmosphere.

Running right through the center of the community, U.S. Route 231 makes daily travel simple for commuters and families. Owensboro is only about 14 miles to the northwest, giving residents quick access to larger employers, shopping centers, restaurants, and medical facilities, while Hartford is an easy 11-mile drive to the south. Surrounded by sprawling farms and quiet country roads, Pleasant Ridge is an ideal setting for anyone looking for room to breathe while staying connected to nearby towns.
