What it’s like
The place. Corinth is a very small city in Grant County, Kentucky, with far fewer residents than most places that carry the name of a city. Homes here cost less than in much of the country, and very few adults hold a four-year degree. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month and some snow each year, and summers turn properly warm by July, with rain or melted snow falling steadily through the year.
Work. Residents of Corinth work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with manufacturing, shops, and transport and warehousing close behind. Across Grant County, the largest workplaces include Grant County Schools, the Dana Inc. automotive parts plant in Dry Ridge, and Walmart. Unemployment in the county is a little lower than a year ago, though the number of jobs has slipped slightly.
Things to do. Ark Encounter, an amusement park, is a short drive away. Kentucky Horse Park, a protected area, and Kentucky Speedway, a race track, are each a longer drive away. Big Bone Lick State Park, also a longer drive, is another protected area for time outdoors.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Corinth’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, very low. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Grant County and the Cincinnati, OH-KY-IN metro.
