About Slaughters

With fewer than two hundred residents, Slaughters is a tiny, quiet Webster County community with a great origin story. Local legend holds that Gustavus Slaughter won the right to name the town during an 1855 card game. Today, it offers peaceful rural living in western Kentucky, where freight trains still roll past on the CSX line and neighbors know each other by name. It is the kind of easygoing, close-knit spot where life moves at a comfortable country pace.
