Following the news that Hopkinsville is the fastest growing major city
in Kentucky, recent data show that Christian County is also the fastest
growing county in the commonwealth. According to estimates from the U.S.
Census Bureau, Christian County had a population of about 75,427 in
2012, up 1,874 people from the previous year. This represents a 2.5
percent increase, and it also makes Christian County the 11th most
populated county in Kentucky.
