Kids Encyclopedia Facts

Ready is a small, quiet place in Grayson County, Kentucky, in the United States. It's known as an "unincorporated community," which means it doesn't have its own local government like a city or town. Instead, it's part of the larger county.

A Glimpse into Ready's Past

Ready has a simple but interesting history. A post office was opened here in 1884. This was a really important service back then, connecting people to the outside world through letters and packages. The post office served the community for many years, finally closing its doors in 1974. No one is quite sure how Ready got its unique name, and its origin remains a bit of a mystery!
