Under Kentucky state law (KRS Chapter 344), which protected class is added to housing discrimination protections BEYOND those listed in the federal Fair Housing Act?

Correct Answer

A) Age

Kentucky's Civil Rights Act (KRS Chapter 344) includes age as a protected class in housing transactions, which goes beyond the seven protected classes under the federal Fair Housing Act (race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status, and disability). Sexual orientation and gender identity are not protected statewide under KRS Chapter 344, though some Kentucky localities such as Louisville, Lexington, and Covington have enacted local ordinances providing those protections within their jurisdictions.
