Overview

Central City, KY has 12 registered structures, the tallest standing 128 m (420 ft) above ground.

Area density is 2.26 per square mile — usually the more telling figure for infrastructure that follows terrain, roads and line of sight rather than population.

Half the registered structures here are taller than 85 m (279 ft) and half are shorter.

Lattice towers (4) and guyed masts (1) between them make up much of the register here — both are older, taller designs than the monopoles that dominate newer urban sites.

Registrations here span 1955 to 2018.

About this data

Source is the FCC Antenna Structure Registration file of 2026-08-23. What it records is structures, not the radios mounted on them: the register cannot tell you which carrier operates from a given site.

The FCC Antenna Structure Registration database covers structures that require registration — generally those over 200 feet or near airports. Many small cells, rooftop antennas and short towers are not registered and will not appear here.

"Owner" is the entity that registered the structure, usually a tower company such as American Tower or Crown Castle. It does not indicate which carriers operate equipment on the structure.
