Although it recently became the 16th largest city in the nation,
Louisville offers the perfect blend of small town charm and
cosmopolitan advantages. It's all here...Fortune 500 companies, a
thriving arts community, world-class health facilities, nationally
recognized schools, scenic waterfront, a tasty array of fine
restaurants, historic homes, and a quality of life that is the envy of
many larger metropolitan centers.
Contributing to that quality of life is a real estate market that
continues to attract those used to excessively high rents and mortgage
payments. Many are surprised to find that for the same monthly payment
on a cramped apartment in Boston, New York, San Francisco or Los
Angeles, they can afford to buy an elegant 3,000 square foot home in an
attractive residential neighborhood convenient to downtown Louisville.
In fact, Louisville housing can be as low as one-half or even one-third
the cost of major urban centers. Add in a more relaxed life-style,
major attractions like the Kentucky Derby Festival, low cost of living,
a 10,000 acre city park system, and some of the country's friendliest
people, and it's easy to see why so many call this Southeastern city on
the river their home.
As Kentucky's largest city, Louisville offers a professional opera,
symphony orchestra, ballet, and the world-renowned Actor's Theatre. It
is also home to Churchill Downs, the Louisville Slugger Museum, the
Louisville Science Center, Kentucky Center For The Arts, the Louisville
Zoo, and Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom. And it is the annual epicenter of
the nation's finest college basketball, with Wildcats, Cardinals, and
Hoosiers prowling nearby courts.
Affable, artistic and highly affordable, Louisville is a town you
will love to visit and hate to leave. We may only be a city of a
million people, but we'll offer you a million reasons to call
Louisville home
