Rockport is a small city and the county seat of Ohio County, Kentucky, United States, located in western Kentucky, adjacent to the Ohio River and across the river from Indiana. Founded in the 1800s, this small city is known for its serene riverside scenery and deep history. As the county seat, Rockport County government and other institutions are located here, is the local administrative center, but the population size is very small, only about 200 people, to maintain the typical American small town style.
