Why Live in Radcliff
First incorporated in 1956, Radcliff, Kentucky, largely owes its existence to Fort Knox and its expansion during the 1930s. “It’s close to Louisville, with affordable, economic options,” says David Earls, associate broker with Schuler Bauer Real Estate Services. “It’s sort of a bedroom community to the Fort Knox military base.” The growth of the famous military base shifted residents and businesses of the former towns of Stithton and New Stithton, forcing them into the city of Radcliff. Though census data shows the city’s population was 800 at the time of its incorporation, that number grew to 3,381 by 1960. The latest census data shows the city had a population of 22,981 in 2022, and Fort Knox remains the area’s largest employer today.
