UNION AT A GLANCE
A growing Boone County community with newer neighborhoods, suburban space, and an evolving civic center.
Union has grown from a smaller Boone County community into a substantial residential market. The city is now developing Union Town Square on a 22-acre site; more than 16 acres are planned as green space, with the park expected to open in 2027.
Union Town Square is planned around a large public green space, walking paths, gardens, a playground, pond, splash pad, and other community amenities.
HOMES & NEIGHBORHOODS
What is the housing like in Union?
Union is especially attractive to buyers looking for newer housing, planned subdivisions, larger floor plans, and neighborhoods developed more recently than much of the inner Northern Kentucky market.
Condition, lot, subdivision, nearby development, updates, and exact location still matter. A good search compares individual homes rather than assuming every property in the community offers the same experience.
Buying in Union: compare the lifestyle, not just the listing.
Think about commute patterns, home age, outdoor space, maintenance, neighborhood layout, and where you spend your everyday time. Buyers considering Union may also want to compare Florence, Burlington, Richwood, and Walton.
Selling a home in Union?

Where can I check Union parks, schools, and city information?
