Boyle County, Administrative county in Central Kentucky, United States.

Boyle County is an administrative region in central Kentucky, with Danville serving as its county seat and only incorporated city. The area contains a mix of rural and urban zones connected by major transportation routes.

The county was established in 1842 and named after John Boyle, who served as Chief Justice of the Kentucky Court of Appeals. This founding reflected the state's expansion and administrative reorganization during that period.

Centre College shapes the academic life of the region through its programs and influences how the community develops intellectually. The presence of the institution draws students and creates an educational focus in daily life.

The area is easily reached through U.S. Routes 68, 127, and 150, which connect well to surrounding regions. Plan to allow time for travel, as locations are spread across the broader territory.

Danville is home to the Kentucky School for the Deaf, one of the oldest institutions of its kind in the United States. The school has shaped education for deaf and hard-of-hearing students throughout its long history.
