Founded in 1775, the home rule-class community of Stanford, Kentucky, is one of the oldest settlements in the state and a great place to buy a home in Lincoln County. Home to nearly four thousand people, Stanford is part of the Danville Micropolitan Area and serves as Lincoln County’s seat. Additionally, Stanford is located just north of Southern Knobs, at the southernmost edge of the beautiful Bluegrass region. Stanford is just over four square miles in size and home to many firsts, including the first counter-clockwise round racetrack, the state’s first governor, and the state’s first brick house.
