Living in Crayne, KY: what to set up and who to call

Crayne has no town government of its own, so Crittenden County runs its elections and most services, and its children attend Crittenden County School District. Tap water in Crayne comes from Crittenden-Livingston Co Water District, which has a clean five-year EPA record (about 20% of systems its size had a health-based violation) and a latest lead result below detection.

Crayne has no town government. It’s a census-designated place in Crittenden County, so the county and regional agencies provide most services. This page answers what we can; the same answers appear on Crayne’s town page under “Getting set up”.
