Glasgow, KY: how dark is the sky here?

Satellite radiance puts Glasgow in the suburban band. Light dome dominates much of the sky. Only the brightest stars and planets stand out clearly. Only 83.1% of the 3,206 cities measured here read darker than Glasgow.

This comes from a satellite measuring light radiating upward, not a person's eyes on the ground, so it isn't the same as a Bortle class, though the two track each other closely.
