Local Area Info: Pleasureville, Kentucky

In 1784, 30-odd Dutch Huguenot families colonizing present-day Mercer County purchased 10,000 acres (4,000 ha) from Squire Boone. They erected a fort for their protection about 1.5 miles (2.4 km) east of present-day north Pleasureville. Their land was held and cultivated in common, but managed by Abraham Banta. It was variously known as "The Dutch Tract", the "Low Dutch Settlement" or "Station", and "Bantatown", but the post office was established as "Pleasureville" c.?1828, and the city was incorporated under that name in 1842. Rennick relates the local story that it derived from a visitor expressing what a pleasure it was to stay among such pleasant people, but others say the area of the post office housed a bordello (at the site of the later Pleasureville Hotel and a present-day apartment building).

In 1858, the Louisville and Nashville Railroad arrived, but its course ran about a mile south of the former community. The post office relocated to the new settlement around the depot in 1874, which received the name "Pleasureville", and the former city became known as "North Pleasureville". It received a separate post office under that name in 1879. The town and city merged in 1962, although the two halves are still sometimes called "North Town" and "South Town" by locals.

Pleasureville is located in southern Henry County at 38°20?57?N 85°6?51?W? / ?38.34917°N 85.11417°W? / 38.34917; -85.11417 (38.349165, -85.114201) in the Bluegrass region of Kentucky. A small portion of the "South Town" part of the city extends south into Shelby County. According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 0.46 square miles (1.2 km2), all land.
