elcome to Murray and Calloway County, Kentucky! Come for a visit and you most certainly will want to stay.

You will be charmed by our Southern hospitality and awed by the scenic beauty of our Western Kentucky community.

You won’t be here long before someone will say hello and ask if they can help you find something – a restaurant, an address, a church, a retail store or maybe even the closest parking for a basketball game. Murray was voted as the Friendliest Small Town in America by Rand McNally. You will find our residents proudly live up to the title. Murray is also honored as one of the 100 Best Communities for Young People and is a Playful City, USA award winner. In addition, Movoto.com voted Murray as #1 Best Place to Live in Kentucky. We beg your pardon if we appear to be boastful!

The pace of our collective lifestyle is typically viewed as relaxed, but there is a foundation of steady growth and progress that propels our community forward. Agriculture, industry, finance, education and healthcare anchor our business community. A wide variety of retail businesses, large and small, offer a multitude of goods and services. We encourage our residents to Shop Local and they do. Last year new businesses opened every 2.2 days and existing businesses continued to flourish.

Near the center of Murray’s success is Murray State University. Founded in 1922, today Murray State University is the University of Choice for nearly 11,000 students. For 25 consecutive years MSU has been recognized by U.S. News and World Report’s Best Colleges as one of the top schools in the country. The 2015 rankings list Murray State as ninth among the top public regional universities in the South. The University enhances our lives with the many cultural and athletic events it provides for our community.

We are fortunate to have recreational opportunities just outside our back door. Kentucky Lake and Lake Barkley offer swimming, boating, camping and fishing for all ages. The Land Between the Lakes is a national recreation area offering outdoor recreation activities such as camping, trail riding, hiking and biking. A variety of educational programs are offered year round.

Our bustling community boasts a small town feel that makes Murray a great place to live, work and play. A new study conducted by Virginia Commonwealth University’s Center on Society and Health shows that Calloway County has the highest life expectancy among western Kentucky counties and one of the highest overall in the state.

We are happy to share all that Murray and Calloway County have to offer. Stop by the Chamber and allow us to show you around. You may want to visit for a while or stay for a lifetime!

O

n a hot June weekend in 2012, two visitors were introduced to Murray, Kentucky, and quickly discovered what makes it the Friendliest Small Town in America. The team from Rand McNally and USA Today were visiting the first of six towns on their journey to determine which would be crowned the winner in the Best of the Road competition.

The journey began in May 2012 when online voting for the annual Best of the Road contest commenced. Small towns across America could be nominated for an award in one of five categories: Friendliest, Most Fun, Best for Food, Most Beautiful and Most Patriotic. Erin Carrico, executive director of the Murray Convention and Visitors Bureau, knew that Murray would be a shoe-in for Friendliest. "It's no secret that this community is friendly and has a special way of making visitors and residents feel at home," she said.

So, the CVB launched a campaign to get locals, former residents and those who love Murray to vote for the town as friendliest. Hundreds of towns were nominated across the five categories, but Murray finished the voting in second place, guaranteeing it a site visit from one of the Best of the Road teams.

Each team was assigned to a category and each category had six finalist towns. The teams traveled cross country from Washington, D.C. to Seattle, Washington, putting Murray as the first friendliest contender to receive a visit. The other nominees were Joplin, Missouri, College Station, Texas, Frisco, Texas, Cloudcroft, New Mexico and San Luis Obispo, California.

The Best of the Road team that visited Murray consisted of Jennifer Jordon and Bob Schatz, who spent three days in the area. During that time, they met with many residents while also getting to know the area. The team took a sightseeing plane ride over the region, went boating on Kentucky Lake, attended a community picnic at Central Park and dined at local favorites including the Big Apple Cafe, Rudy's and Jasmine.

Jordon and Schatz spent the next month visiting the remaining five towns. Then, on July 17, 2012, in Seattle Washington, it was announced that Murray had been named the Friendliest Small Town in America. Word spread like wildfire through social media and the entire community beamed with pride. "We already know how friendly Murray is; now it's time for the whole world to know," Carrico said.

In an interview with USA Today, Jordon and Schatz said that Murray residents "had a way of bringing you in, and we made friends. This is the only town where we went into people's homes." They added, "It feels like home in Murray more than anywhere else."

Since the designation was bestowed on Murray, it has increased tourism to the town and been a source of pride for locals. The CVB launched a campaign marketing Murray as the Friendliest Small Town in America, and visitor numbers have increased since then. However, the biggest impact of this award has been within the community. Citizens still boast with pride to friends, family and anyone who will listen that they live in the Friendliest Small Town in America.

A

fter the disasters of 2014, the last two years have been a whirlwind of activity in our quaint downtown. The historic downtown is moving forward while maintaining the charm and bustle of years gone by.

Murray Main Street and the City of Murray have been hard at work creating incentives and programs to encourage appropriate reinvestment in the commercial historic district. Appropriate reinvestment means encouraging multi-family housing between more intense, commercial development including a strong base of retail and restaurant support. This will preserve and repurpose historic buildings to help maintain the downtown’s authentic character.

In September of 2015, a historic downtown building was donated to Murray Main Street. With reinvestment goals in mind, Murray Main Street sold the building to a group whose intentions were to create apartments in the downtown. Today, we have five new apartments and three commercial offices spaces to rent in the building.

In July of 2016, the board of the Murray Main Street program was thrilled to be involved in a groundbreaking for a new building to be constructed on the site of the 2014 fire. Peel & Holland committed to reinvesting in the downtown by constructing a 6,500+ square foot building.

Murray Main Street Manager Deana Wright said this step is a giant leap forward, “We see great things for the future of downtown and the fact that people have committed to spending large amounts of money to help rebuild means we are going in the right direction.”

The City of Murray has created the Tax Moratorium program for real property owners in the commercial historic district.

The Tax Moratorium is an economic incentive program providing tax abatement to owners of rehabilitated residential or commercial properties within the City of Murray Historic Overlay District.

In addition to the Tax Moratorium, the Murray Main Street Program, along with The Murray Bank, announced in 2016 the opening cycle of the Downtown Development Incentive Grant Program. This program is available for those who own real property or run a small business in the historic district.

Downtown is not only the focal point for the commercial historic district with shopping and restaurants but it is also the center for many fun events throughout the year. Every Saturday morning during the months of May through October, the square is lined with vendors selling in-season vegetables, fresh fruit, meats, bread, flowers and handmade items at the Downtown Saturday Market.

The first weekend in September, people from all over the region and state travel to Murray to get their hands on some free ice cream at the Murray Ice Cream Festival.

As the year winds down and cold weather approaches, Main Street Merriment consumes the court square. This event consists of the lighting of the community Christmas tree, live music, performances from the local theater group, pony rides, food, and an elaborately decorated court square with lights.

Although downtown has been through a lot in the past three years, it has made the community even stronger as citizens pull together to support local business and the history that the court square holds.

Murray might be small in size, but it is large in the variety of arts and entertainment. With plays and musicals offered at Playhouse in the Park year round the shows are sure to entice all viewers. This year there are five major productions offered at Playhouse. These productions involve loads of talent from local community members ranging from children to adults.

Each show will be worth it, from the beginning of the first act to the ending bow.

Playhouse in the Park, which was founded in 1977, is a unique community theater located in Central Park in an old freight train depot. Playhouse Executive Director Lisa Cope attributes the theater's success to the enthusiasm and theatrical abilities of local residents. "I'm constantly amazed by two things," she said. "One is how well the community supports this theater. They come to the shows, they support the actors, they support any kind of program that we try to do. The other thing is the amount of talent that's out there in this area. We're just blown away, time and time again."

The theatre invites all ages to participate, beginning with the Pail of Tadpoles group consisting of 1st-8th grade students.

The next step after "tadpoles" is the Box of Frogs, which is the young actor's guild for those in 9th grade through college.

Playhouse in the Park even has a senior citizen's acting troupe, called Old Duffers and Powder Puffers who perform radio skits, original material and short humorous plays.

Upcoming shows, performance dates and times, and tickets can be found at the Playhouse in the Park website, playhouseinthepark.net.

In addition to Playhouse in the Park, several plays are performed annually by the Murray State University Theater Department in the Robert E. Johnson Theater, as well as at other on-campus venues. The campus also hosts a Shakespeare Festival each year, which showcases the American Shakespeare Center on tour from Staunton, Virginia.

Creating art is often times a form of self-expression. In Murray, creating artwork is a talent that is valued and displayed throughout the town. Galleries are here for the

community to participate in art classes, display their works or just view the amazing talent.

The Clara M. Eagle Gallery, located on Murray State University's campus, serves as a unique source for experiencing art. In the past, the gallery has hosted various types of work, ranging from contemporary student art to national juried shows. Admission to this gallery and the Curris Center Gallery, also on campus, is free.

The Murray Art Guild, a local non-profit educational and cultural organization, was established in 1967 and has dedicated its time to supporting arts enrichment. The MAG offers classes and workshops to help develop the talent of local artists. Classes such as photography, drawing and rugweaving are available for multiple skill levels. MAG members exhibit two shows each year at the Robert O. Miller Conference Center in downtown Murray.

Cultural activities are never far away in Murray. Wrather Museum, the first building constructed on the campus of Murray State University, offers historical highpoints and a flash to the past of campus and community life. Its mission is "to highlight and promote an understanding of the social, cultural and economic development of West Kentucky and the Jackson Purchase." Both permanent and changing exhibits are open to the public at no charge.

Besides the museum, MSU also boasts the CFSB Center, an 8,500 seat multi-purpose arena that hosts a variety of events.

The CFSB Center holds concerts, trade shows, conventions, sports tournaments, consignment sales and is also the home of the MSU basketball teams. Each year the arena hosts events like the West Kentucky Boat and Outdoor Show, Kentucky Kids Consignment Sale and the Ringling Brothers Circus. Musically, the CFSB Center has held concerts from big name artists including Willie Nelson, Maroon 5, John Mayer, Miranda Lambert, Lady Antebellum and Florida Georgia Line. Lovett Auditorium is another venue on campus where smaller-scale concerts can be found. Lovett Auditorium usually hosts performances at least once a month. Lovett Live Onstage is a unique series where concertgoers sit on stage with the artist, hear stories behind the songs and interact with the performer.

t was another year for economic growth in Murray and Calloway County. Just how much?

Think of a typical week. Monday comes and goes, then Tuesday, then Wednesday, and by Wednesday afternoon another new business starts up in our community. This pace, a new business startup every 2.2 days, beat the previous year’s pace of one new business every three days. It is a sign of a strong economy, friendly quality of life, and expanding markets in the Murray-Calloway County area.

I

Growth like this is hard to assign to one single factor.

Rather, it is a multitude of orchestrated areas of operation that have created an opportunistic small business environment. They include a quality workforce, lower operating costs, high quality of

living, and ease of working with local officials. The diversity of these aspects contribute to the consistent growth over time of the Murray and Calloway County economy.

A sector of town that has seen a resurgence of investment has been the historic downtown court square, located in the heart of Murray’s historic district. Mixed use development, young professional living, a new restaurant, a new gym, all are contributing to the resurgence of Downtown Murray.

New and current businesses are finding success in Murray. For more information on how to start your business in Murray, contact the Chamber at 270-7535171, or visit www.mymurray.com

S

ince 2008, the national economy has struggled.

Financial markets collapsed, the automotive industry tanked and the housing market soon followed suit with tens of billions of mortgages going into default.

Somehow, Murray Kentucky, managed to not only survive the downturn but to actually grow modestly. Housing prices dipped briefly before making a strong recovery and local manufacturing companies all survived downsizing at the corporate level. Calloway County unemployment rates have held at a very low level and current construction is at an all-time high. However, success is never automatic and what starts as a lack of growth can quickly become decline.

"Of course, this is easier said than done. Working with our existing industries to remain profitable and happy in Murray is job one. Job two is to attract more blue chip companies to Murray for future growth."

Manning also stated there are two major initiatives on the drawing board. The first is to build an unfinished or “spec� building to use as a marketing tool for recruiting new companies. Such a building needs to be quite large (as much as 100,000 sq. ft.) and flexible for new tenants. The other major initiative is to actively recruit new companies. Working with other partners in the region, the EDC will once again travel to Germany to meet with more than 100 German companies that have expressed a genuine interest in locating in the U.S. Fortunately, senior executives from Murray company iwis and Kayser (in Mark Manning EDC President Fulton, Kentucky) will be in attendance telling others why they chose West Kentucky.

Working with our existing industries to remain profitable and happy in Murray is job one.

The Murray-Calloway Economic Development Corporation (EDC) works exclusively to help make sure Murray's tradition of excellence continues. This tradition is evidenced by the many awards the community has received for being a great place to live, work and play.

"The EDC's mission is to retain and attract high quality manufacturing and distribution jobs to Murray and Calloway County," said EDC President Mark Manning.

The Economic Development Corporation continues working with the Chamber and other local allies, and remains committed to serving the community by attracting and retaining high quality jobs.

O

ne thing that makes Murray unique is the ways its citizens join together during times of need.

Whether it's during a time of crisis or for a struggling nonprofit, Calloway Countians tend to have way of pitching in when it matters most.

This isn't just a casual observation made by locals with pride in their community. It's a fact. According to Peter C. Weber, director of nonprofit leadership studies at Murray State University, Murray citizens give more of their income to charity than the average U.S. citizen. "The Chronicle of Philanthropy found that, on average, Americans give about three percent of their income to charity. In Murray, the giving ratio increases to 4.72 percent, thus being well above national average," he said.

Weber added that the strength of these community ties is heightened amongst the generous lower and middle classes.

"In Calloway County, the giving ratio of the lowest income bracket (up to $25,000) was 12.73 percent," he said.

With such a strong giving rate, it's no surprise that this community is home to a large number of nonprofit organizations. There are currently 165 nonprofits registered

in Calloway County, 152 of which are located within the city, according to Weber. "With one nonprofit organization for every 119 persons, the Murray community has a nonprofit density that is above the national average, which is of one nonprofit organization for every 175 Americans."

Religious organizations also make up a large part of the strong nonprofit sector in Calloway County. In fact, the county is home to more than 100 places of worship.

The nonprofit sector supports the community in more ways than one. Weber stated that according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the nonprofit sector employed 13.4 million individuals nationwide in 2012, which was 10.3 percent of total U.S. private sector employment. In addition to helping those in need, local nonprofits employ professionals who work to make the community a better place to live.

According to Weber, Murray State University is working to respond to the increased need for professionalization and leadership in the nonprofit sector. Through the Nonprofit Leadership Studies programs, students obtain knowledge and skills in the areas of program development, financial resource development and management, volunteer and human resource management and more.

f you want to know what makes Murray so attractive as a place to reside, look no further than the awards and accolades the town has received over the past five years. Based on important statistics like cost of living, safety and size, these awards illustrate why retirees, college students and families flock to Calloway County.

In 2014, real estate blog Movoto named Murray the number one place to live in Kentucky. According to the article, the community topped the list due to its "low cost of living score, some of the finest weather in the state, good air quality and low income tax rate." Murray Convention and Visitors Bureau Executive Director Erin Carrico said she was pleasantly surprised when Murray was named the best in the Commonwealth. "We did not know we were named number one until the day the article was published. Looking at the criteria for ranking cities though, it is clear that Murray is one of the best," she said.

In addition to this award, Murray was honored as a Playful City USA for the seventh consecutive year in 2014. America's Promise Alliance has named Calloway County one of the 100 Best Communities for Young People on four different occasions. To top it all off, in 2012, Murray was awarded the Friendliest Small Town in America by Rand McNally and USA Today.

In 2015, Hazel, Kentucky, was named one of the Ten Best Antiquing Towns in the U.S. by Fodor's Travel. Hazel has long been known for its array of antique shops, and the town brings in visitors from across the region and state.

In addition to recreation, the health of its people is important in a community. For the past six years, Calloway County has been listed as one of the top 10 healthiest counties in Kentucky. Another reason those who live in Murray are so health-minded is the outstanding health care system.

Murray-Calloway County Hospital is home to more than 70 physicians representing 28 medical specialties.

In the past, Murray has been named one of the 100 Best Communities for Young People by America's Promise Alliance. APA bases this award on fundamental resources young people need to succeed, one of which is having a safe place to live. The organization is built around the framework of ensuring that more young people experience safety.

According to City Rating, which rates towns based on crime reports, in 2012 (the last year for which data is available), the violent crime rate for Murray was lower than the national average by 56%. The town was lower than Kentucky's average violent crime rate by 24%.

Although most small towns boast shopping as a fun activity, Murray is home to more than its fair share of boutique, antique and specialty shops. Bookstores, clothing boutiques and home decor stores are scattered throughout town. In the past few years, Murray has seen a surge in the number of specialty boutiques. Most of these shops are locally owned and stock items that can't be found anywhere else.

One of Calloway County's most important attractions is a small town named Hazel, the antique shopping capital of Western Kentucky. Originally established in 1890, Hazel was a booming railroad town. As time passed and the railroad industry began to dwindle, so did the small town, and by the late 1980s Hazel was struggling to stay alive.

Then, the emergence of a few antique stores breathed the life back into it. Today, Hazel has more than a dozen shops representing hundreds of antiques dealers. It is also home to an art gallery, a jewelry store and few cozy restaurants.

Shopping for antiques is truly about more than a good bargain. It's about having an adventure and finding that perfect, out-of-the-ordinary piece. Only an 8-mile drive from Murray, visitors to Hazel can park their car once and spend the day getting lost in the shops.

With a large regional population, strong community organizations and a zest for fun, it's no wonder Murray hosts several festivals and events each year.

Freedom Fest, an Independence Day celebration, is Murray's oldest and most popular festival. As the sun rises in the early morning of the 4th of July, the event day-long event begins with the Veteran’s Remembrance Ceremony in Chestnut Park. Briggs & Stratton has long hosted the popular Main Street Mile fun run, which leads runners down the parade route before the parade begins. Next, thousands of people line Main Street for what has been referred to as the "largest small town parade," often featuring more than 80 different entries. Later that evening, Central Park is filled with families listening to music, enjoying pony rides and munching on good food. They all gather together for the favorite Freedom Fest activity, fireworks. The Briggs and Stratton Fireworks Extravaganza always proves to be a dazzling show that lights up the sky to awe-struck viewers.

As the summer weather begins to cool, locals look forward to one of their favorite events: the Ice Cream Festival. What could be better than free ice cream? The September event features free Kroger Ice Cream, and not just plain old vanilla. Four different coolers on the court square serve dozens of different unique flavors of ice cream, such as white chocolate raspberry, butter pecan and chocolate moose tracks. The event has plenty for the kids to do, with inflatables, a singing contest, a car show and other fun activities.

With so much to do in Murray, each season brings a different possibility for fun. More information on tourism and events can be found at tourmurray.com.

eing situated in the southern Midwest, Murray is within driving distance of 65% of the United States. Six major metropolitan areas are within a 300 miles radius of Murray: Nashville, Memphis, St. Louis, Louisville, Indianapolis and Cincinnati. Within that radius are eleven major Interstates. Also, the Tennessee, Mississippi, Cumberland and Ohio Rivers are only a short distance from Murray.

A future development near Calloway County could have a huge impact on transportation and economic development in Murray. The proposed Interstate 69 route would change the Purchase Parkway in Marshall County to a section of I-69, and potentially stretch from Canada to Mexico. This change would affect cities locally as well as nationwide and could directly connect Murray to major cities including Houston and Indianapolis.

opening of I-69 will allow for the development of commerce and encourage economic development. "It will provide one roadway from Texas to Michigan opening up West Kentucky to trade and tourism as never before. It will provide a higher level of access for the transportation of goods and services. This aspect assists our economic development organizations in recruiting companies and bringing jobs. The interstate will also support the barge industry and its anticipated increase in export/import trade from the expansion of the Panama Canal," he said.

Murray’s prime location makes it a top spot for new businesses and industry.

Another construction project in the works affects those who access Murray from Tennessee using Highway 641, which was built in the 1930s and is now a heavily-traveled road. Recently, the Purchase Area Development District ranked the widening of Highway 641 South number one on its annual priority list.

According to the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet, feasibility studies show I-69 will return $1.63 for every dollar invested in it. From Indianapolis to Houston, I-69 will create 27,000 jobs and add $11 billion in wages. With Kentucky being at the heart of the corridor, local officials have no doubt about the impact I-69 could have on Western Kentucky.

Kyle-Oakley Field, Calloway County's local airport, facilitates air travel for private planes. Johnny Parker, airport manager, said the airport has come a long way since it first opened in 1961. “All that was here was a ramp, taxiway and runway. We didn’t have fuel, a hangar, an office or lights.” Now KyleOakley Field is an essential part of the economy and has been an asset in attracting new industry to Murray.

Chris Wooldridge, district director for the Kentucky Small Business Development Center at Murray State, said the

These future changes along with Murray's existing prime location make it at top spot for new business and industry.

A

s a college town, there is no shortage of apartments and houses for rent in Murray. Renting or leasing is not just for students, however. Many new citizens, temporary residents and young families find renting or leasing to be their best option. Yet, all renters should amply research and prepare before signing on the dotted line.

Other areas that tend to consist of a majority of apartments are neighborhoods on or near 16th Street or Bailey Road. An array of apartments can also be found on Diuguid Drive, Northwood Drive and Southwood Drive. Other than these neighborhoods, houses and apartments for rent or lease are available individually throughout the town.

One big advantage of living in Murray is the city’s low cost of living.

Many potential renters are curious to know which neighborhoods are predominantly students. As you may suspect, the closer to campus the more likely the area is to be student dominated. Campus Evolution Villages (CEV) is student-only housing, with two different complexes on 16th Street. The apartments are furnished and all utilities (up to a certain allowance) are included in the rent cost. The complexes are home to amenities like a pool, fitness center, grills, billiards, volleyball court, game room and more.
