About Smithfield

Smithfield is a very small town located in the state of Kentucky. With a population of 2,129 people and just one neighborhood, Smithfield is the 175th largest community in Kentucky.

There are especially a lot of people living in Smithfield who work in sales jobs (13.00%), office and administrative support jobs (11.19%), and management occupations (5.64%).

Smithfield is a very car-oriented town. 97.86% of residents commute to work in a private automobile rather than by other means, such as public transit, bicycling, or walking. This is because Smithfield is a small town, and most people who live here have to drive out of town for work, and the town population is not large nor dense enough to support an extensive public transportation system. Smithfield has a lot of rural roads, and houses can be far apart. Many residents drive out of town for regular shopping trips as well.

As is often the case in a small town, Smithfield doesn't have a public transportation system that people use for their commute.
