Normal is a residential unincorporated community, located within the city of Ashland, Kentucky along U.S. Route 23 and U.S. Route 60 and the Ohio River. It was annexed by the City of Ashland in 1905. Previously, Normal was an independent community, and received its mail from nearby Catlettsburg. Normal Presbyterian Church, founded in 1890, is one of the last surviving remnants of the original community of Normal.
