Louisville Overview | An informative introduction to Louisville, Kentucky

[@zyxwut321]

Louisville's an underrated city and metro area. It has a very healthy economy, low cost of living, and its metro area has been steadily growing for generations. Its climate is moderate and doesn't tend to get a lot of extremes, though summers are very warm and stifling like most of the rest of the country. The people I've met there tend to be pretty friendly and down to Earth (it's no accident that Jennifer Lawrence is a native). It has a lot of the amenities of a larger city with the chill Southern/Midwestern vibe of a medium-sized regional city. Obviously, it has its crime and poverty and other problems like any city but overall it's a pleasant place to visit and seems to be a decent place to live.

[@marques9392]

I completely agree

[@iamchaunceman]

That’s a great summary. But Jennifer Lawrence being from there having anything to do with it is a stretch. I can find beautiful women in any big city.

[@JUSAGUYNKY]

@@iamchaunceman I believe he’s speaking of her personality and her kindness.. not the way she looks 👍🏼

[@Museum-zg6tz]

I disagree, as a Louisville native, it has to be one of the worst cities I ever had the displeasure to live in. My older sister still lives there and the crime is outrageous. Churchill Downs is a dump, that place is a hood. Homelessness is also a big problem. The downtown also sucks.

[@cavabertcavabert6147]

@@Museum-zg6tzbonjour. Je viens de voir sur Google Earth le quartier de Churchill downs. C’est propre. Je trouve Louisville joli. Surtout la périphérie. Ou les autres villes à côté comme Jefferson / st Matthew / prairie village/ indian Hills.

[@RoyalRedbird]

My hometown! Don’t live there anymore but Louisville will always be home to me ❤

[@nickriner]

I am from Louisville KY raised in the Highlands on East Broadway. I am in Shelbyville KY now because of all the crime and bull.

Salute To Louisville From Cincinnati. 💯

[@sharcerv74]

I'm originally from NYC but I moved to Louisville years ago and moved back and forth between NYC and Louisville a few times before finally coming back here two years ago. I will never look back at NYC. I love this city and am proud to claim it as my home.

[@t206kid]

I grew up in NJ, but moved to Louisville in 2014, love it, it has become home

[@cavabertcavabert6147]

Bravo. J’ai pu voir sur Google Earth et street view. Très joli. Mais j’ai pu lire certains commentaires que c’était dangereux. Dommage.

[@davidpetersen6694]

My friend grew up there and goes back to visit family each year. She has a poster of the skyline in her office so I’ve “seen” Louisville many times. Taco Bell originates from Louisville? Wow! Thought it might be from Texas. Texas Roadhouse is another surprising fact. I love all the details you dig up! Great clip on that steamboat, btw. I’ve been on one and it’s a wonderful experience. Thanks for another addition to your city surveys. ♥️😎⭐️🥇🏆

[@CityGeek]

Yeah I was surprised to learn those restaurants had their headquarters in Louisville as well! Thanks for the comment, as always!!

[@Brey]

I grew up around Louisville and currently live in it, it's a great place to have fun when you have the Derby, Thunder and also Louder Than Life which you didn't mention! It held the biggest rock festival in North America in 2023.

[@WilliamCrew]

I have always thought that the Louisville skyline has a very interesting to look at. I would love to visit this city. Great video.

A 50-1 odds city. . .horse race talk for being underrated. : ) Don't forget about the oldest watertower at the Waterworks Museum and Locust Grove, a historic park with plenty of reenactments. : ) PS: @City Geek did you reupload your Louisville compilation? I seem to have remembered you had one earlier. It's okay if you did.

[@CityGeek]

Thanks for the comment! I didn’t know about the oldest water tower. And yeah I did a Louisville video a couple years ago but there were several things I didn’t like about it so I took it down to make an improved video about the city. I’ll be doing that from time to time when I think a city needs a better video than what I’ve already uploaded.
