About Wingo

Wingo is a home rule-class city in Graves County, Kentucky, United States. The 2020 census counted 573 residents. Wingo was established in 1854 as a stop along the New Orleans and Ohio Railroad, a predecessor line of the Illinois Central. The city was originally named "Wingo's Station" for local landowner Jerman J. Wingo makes sense once you see how its past, landscape, and current gathering spots overlap. The useful thing to know about Wingo is that its older landmarks and current settings belong to one connected place. U.S. Route 45 passes through the center of town connecting the two larger cities. Interstate 69 runs just west of Wingo, with access from Exit 14.
