Ashland Reviews

Write a review about Ashland Tell people what you like or don't like about Ashland…
sunny here? 0.5 rating By dryback ( May 26, 2015) i like how it says this place is sunny. THE sun maybe comes out 50 days a year out of 365.. Crime is higher than your statistics indicate and the drug use has increased along with the blight and out-migration. Local government is known as corrupt for years. The schools stink an ...Read More d full of politics and there is hardly any shopping or restaurants left. And the ones that are here are overpriced. This is unreal of a ranking 71? really come here and visit and you wont rank it 10. I would be lucky to rank this 10 or 15. Its a step up from Shenandoah however.

This is a terrible ranking. Read Less
