Welcome to Louisville, Kentucky!

Located alongside the Ohio River, Louisville, Kentucky is the picturesque home to over a million residents. The birthplace of boxing legend Muhammad Ali and actor Tom Cruise, Louisville Kentucky is host to exciting sporting events, tasty restaurants, and a number of internationally known businesses.

Louisville travel is made easy with the city's convenient location and an airport that is easy to navigate. Visitors from New York and Miami can reach the Louisville International Airport in approximately two hours by plane, and visitors will find car rental and taxicabs easy to access. Restaurants are plentiful in the city, especially for steak lovers. Popular choices include chain favorites such as Morton's and Ruth's Chris, as well as local favorites, such as Pat's Steakhouse and Z's.

The Louisville tourism industry typically reaches its annual peak during the first week of May, when thousands of people travel to the city from across the globe to attend the world famous Kentucky Derby horse race. The Kentucky Derby is known by many as the most exciting two minutes in sports. Sports fans will also enjoy the city's new basketball arena, as well as the excitement that the city's college basketball program generates among Louisvillians and visitors.

Due to the city's relatively central location in the United States, residents are able to enjoy cool temperatures and some snowfall during the fall and winter, as well as the warmer temperatures and sunshine that accompanies the spring and summer seasons. Louisville Ky is a picturesque city characterized by a grassy, gently rolling terrain, and many mature trees in the suburban areas of the city.

The city has a number of large older homes and historic buildings, many of which are located within a four mile radius of the city's center. For people seeking a newer home or a larger yard, the city has a number of newer homes with enhanced amenities available in the suburban areas outside the downtown area. The average home value in June, 2010 was $153,519, making the city an affordable choice for people in search of a city with a relatively low cost of living.
