About Science Hill

Science Hill is a quiet, friendly town of around 700 people located just a few miles north of Somerset. Sitting right along U.S. 27, it offers the easygoing pace of small-town living along with quick access to everyday essentials. You get peaceful neighborhoods and open green spaces while staying only ten minutes from Somerset's grocery stores, restaurants, and medical care.

A major anchor for families is Science Hill School, a dedicated K-8 district that has served the community since the 1890s. When students reach high school, they typically move on to nearby Pulaski County or Somerset high schools. With Lake Cumberland just down the road for weekend boating and fishing, Science Hill is a great fit for anyone looking for a relaxed, close-knit atmosphere without feeling isolated.
