About Columbus
Columbus is a tiny city located in the state of Kentucky. With a population of 231 people and just one neighborhood, Columbus is the 348th largest community in Kentucky.
Because occupations involving physical labor dominate the local economy, Columbus is generally considered to be a blue-collar town. 52.6% of the Columbus workforce is employed in blue-collar occupations, compared to the national average of 24.7%. Overall, Columbus is a city of production and manufacturing workers, service providers, and transportation and shipping workers. There are especially a lot of people living in Columbus who work in building maintenance and grounds keeping (11.34%), office and administrative support jobs (7.22%), and food service (6.19%).
Columbus is a small city, and as is often the case with smaller towns, the population isn't large or dense enough to support much in the way of a public transportation system. In fact, there are many rural roads around Columbus, which makes walking or biking to and from work a bit difficult. This makes for a very car-oriented town: 100% of residents commute to work by private automobile, and people often drive out of town for work, shopping, and other activities.
As is often the case in a small city, Columbus doesn't have a public transportation system that people use for their commute.
