Kentuckians
Bourbon state residents
Kentuckians are people from Kentucky, the southeastern U.S. state known for bourbon, horse racing, and bluegrass music.
The term covers both native-born residents and those who have adopted the state as home: Kentuckians take their basketball seriously.
The state's mixed Northern-Southern heritage gives Kentuckians a distinct regional identity.
