Owensboro is Kentucky’s fourth-largest city, a river town on the Ohio that grew on tobacco, distilling and manufacturing. Today its economy includes healthcare led by Owensboro Health, food production, manufacturing, energy, financial services and a revived distilling scene. Two small colleges, Kentucky Wesleyan and Brescia, add to the community, and a riverfront redevelopment brought a convention center, a park and hotels to the downtown waterfront. The city is also known as the barbecue capital of Kentucky for its distinctive smoked mutton and burgoo.
Owensboro is a long drive from Louisville or Nashville, and flying private into Owensboro–Daviess County Regional Airport, just southwest of downtown, saves hours for business visits to plants and offices in the region. Music fans come for the Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame & Museum and its annual ROMP festival, a celebration of bluegrass and roots music. Visitors can also enjoy the riverfront’s Smothers Park, the Western Kentucky Botanical Garden, the Owensboro Museum of Fine Art and a classic plate of mutton at a local barbecue institution, and the Evansville, Indiana area lies just across the river.
