I know. In my part of rural Kentucky they are all over the place. Monday I counted 10 horse and buggies while waiting for the school bus. The bus monitor asked me how many buggies did I see ahead of them because they were slowing down their route. I think they were going to a funeral as the men all had their black top hats on. We don't see that much.
I actually don't have any experience with them and only see them once a great while driving on the highway one time. I just heard they are very good and seen videos. I would love to live close by so I can go buy things from their farms. Ashlanddog lives right next to them.
When I was a teenager and living with my Grandmother, the closest Amish (which actually were the Mennonite sect as they strictly wear black clothing only) was in a small town over. My grandmother would stop there to buy butter from one family. My grandfather would go there as they had a Sawmill to buy wood slabs to fire his barn for Dark-Fired tobacco, and they also had a General Store called Penchum's. They sold everything there that they canned, baked, or made. There were no other Amish/Mennonites around but them until about 30 years ago.
When I moved on the road I'm on in another town, about 25 years ago, you very seldom saw an Amish buggy. Now you see them everywhere. Like I said, there is an Amish store not far across the road from me.
Yes. Amish can do stuff and very skilled.

Ashlanddog is very lucky too.
