About Student Housing in Bowling Green
Bowling Green, Kentucky is the state's third-largest city, set in the rolling country between Louisville and Nashville, and Western Kentucky University gives it a strong student current. WKU sits on a hill just south of a compact, walkable downtown, with the Hilltoppers shaping the rhythm of the place. Campus and downtown sit close enough that student life spills between them, especially along College Street and State Street toward the historic square at Fountain Square Park. Green space is easy to find, from the riverfront trails along the Barren River to the cave-riddled karst landscape the region is known for. Fall Saturdays pull the crowd toward Houchens Industries L.T. Smith Stadium, and festivals keep downtown lively year-round.
