Westwood, KY (CDP)

Westwood is a quiet, close-knit residential suburb sitting right on the edge of Ashland in northeastern Kentucky. While it is technically an unincorporated community governed by Boyd County, it has its own distinct neighborhood identity and easy access to everything in the Tri-State area. Daily commutes are simple, with Route 168 and U.S. 60 connecting residents to Ashland's downtown, shopping centers, and medical hubs in just a few minutes, while keeping home life peaceful and tucked away from heavy commercial traffic.

Families in the area are primarily served by the Fairview Independent School District, a small, community-centered system along Main Street where students from pre-K through 12th grade learn close to home. For outdoor recreation, Bill Grizzle Memorial Park offers open green space, playgrounds, and picnic shelters for neighborhood gatherings. Between the local schools, nearby parks, and convenient access to Ashland's bus routes and amenities, Westwood offers newcomers a relaxed place to settle down while staying close to city conveniences.
