Henderson triangulates between Evansville's urban pull and river-town independence. Main Street rooms fill with families who've been here since before the bridge made crossing easy, while Downtown hosts the commuters who work across the Ohio. North Henderson draws the working-class roots. Audubon keeps the residential layers. The comedy here navigates the tension between Kentucky identity and Indiana proximity. Open mics become the space where both allegiances sit together. The comics who honor Henderson's specific river-town position find audiences grateful someone understood the town isn't Evansville's suburb—it's the Kentucky alternative.
