Planning for the future of Fayette County requires consideration of a wide variety of topics, but at the center of this work are the people whom the plan ultimately seeks to serve. The people of Fayette County are the possessors of a rich history and a unique culture, both of which are key to the quality of life that the county offers. This section will provide an overview of the people who call Fayette County home, and an assessment of the educational opportunities and facilities, which have been invested in heavily in recent years.

Finally, the unique culture and heritage of the county will be inventoried, and opportunities for people of all ages to further engage with their community will be identified.
