Livermore is located at the confluence of the Green River and the Rough River. Livermore was the site chosen by traders and merchants for a boat landing and a trading post before 1837. With the building of locks and dams on the Green River in the 1830's, Livermore prospered as a trading area and a river port. Livermore was laid out as a town on February 18, 1837 by William A. Brown, a landowner and merchant. He chose the name of Livermore after his friend Alonzo Livermore.

You'll know Livermore is a special place when you arrive and begin to meet its residents. You will find an open door to a community of people that are never too busy to lend a helping hand.

Livermore is located on the banks of the Green River where water transportation is available. A nine-foot navigation channel to the Ohio River is maintained. KY 136  and US Highway 431 are the main thoroughfares serving the Livermore Area.

The Western Kentucky Parkway is only 15 miles to the south and the Audubon Parkway is 25 miles to the north. Livermore is close to major cities, but still maintains its hometown atmosphere.

The Community works on the idea that "there is nothing we can't do."
