What it’s like
The place. Sebree is a small city in Webster County, Kentucky, with a young population compared with most of the country. Homes here are modestly priced, and few adults hold a four-year degree. Winters are cold and bring some snow, summers are warm, and rain and melted snow fall steadily through the year.
Work. Residents work mainly in manufacturing, in schools, hospitals and social care, and in transport, warehouses and utilities, with farming, forestry and mining also part of the mix. Across Webster County, the largest workplaces include Webster County Schools, Pioneer Plastics and Houchens Food Group. Few people here work from home, and the county has added jobs over the past year.
Things to do. The nearest well-known attractions are a longer drive away. USS LST-325 is a museum ship, and Angel Mounds is an archaeological site with a long history. John James Audubon State Park is a protected area for those who like time outdoors, and Mesker Park Zoo and Botanic Garden is a zoo that makes a fuller day out.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Sebree’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively high. 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 Webster County.
