From Wikipedia:
Louisville (/ˈluːivɪl/ (About this soundlisten) LOO-ee-vil, US: /ˈluːəvəl/ (About this soundlisten) LOO-ə-vəl, locally /ˈlʊvəl/ (About this soundlisten) LUU-vəl) is the largest city in the Commonwealth of Kentucky and the 29th most-populous city in the United States. Louisville is the historical seat and, since 2003, the nominal seat of Jefferson County, on the Indiana border.
Named after King Louis XVI of France, Louisville was founded in 1778 by George Rogers Clark, making it one of the oldest cities west of the Appalachians. With nearby Falls of the Ohio as the only major obstruction to river traffic between the upper Ohio River and the Gulf of Mexico, the settlement first grew as a portage site. It was the founding city of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad, which grew into a 6,000-mile (9,700 km) system across 13 states.
Today, the city is known as the home of boxer Muhammad Ali, the Kentucky Derby, Kentucky Fried Chicken, the University of Louisville and its Cardinals, Louisville Slugger baseball bats, and three of Kentucky's six Fortune 500 companies: Humana, Kindred Healthcare, and Yum! Brands. Muhammad Ali International Airport, Louisville's main commercial airport, hosts UPS's worldwide hub.
Since 2003, Louisville's borders have been the same as those of Jefferson County, after a city-county merger. The official name of this consolidated city-county government is the Louisville/Jefferson County Metro Government, abbreviated to Louisville Metro. Despite the merger and renaming, the term "Jefferson County" continues to be used in some contexts in reference to Louisville Metro, particularly including the incorporated cities outside the "balance" which make up Louisville proper. The city's total consolidated population as of the 2020 census was 782,969. However, the balance total of 633,045 excludes other incorporated places and semiautonomous towns within the county and is the population listed in most sources and national rankings.
The Louisville-Jefferson County, KY-IN Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) includes Louisville-Jefferson County and 12 surrounding counties, seven in Kentucky and five in Southern Indiana. As of 2019, the MSA had a population of 1,265,108, ranking 46th nationally.
Should have driven through St. James Court. One of the most beautiful streets in America.
Seen a lot of streets like this in several cities. I was just up in Indianapolis for NBA ALL STAR WEEKEND and stayed at an AirBnB in a neighborhood similar to St James court called Woodruff

Shit I moved out of Louisville over run with crime...highest crime rate ever this year 2021..
What end of town? Makes a big difference I’ve lived here for 36 years and I’d never leave Louisville . has everything.
You should have moved to the east end area of Louisville. Middletown, Anchorage or Berrytown. It's quiet at night and very little to no crime in the east end area. You couldn't pay me to live in downtown Louisville.
@@butterflysmile348 hell no ..car jackings all over the east end of Louisville ...wake up Louisville or live in crime as you continue to vote in democrats...suffer by your self ...
Were you living now give it time you will be repeating the same words Guaranteed when you run 🏃🏾♂️ you keep running NO ONE CAN MAKE ME RUN FROM MY Neighborhood you will be moving for the REST OF YOUR WHAT 🤫😉🤣🤣
I live here and honestly it’s not dangerous unless you live in the west end or south end of Louisville. Late at night is dangerous and I would say staying away from the wrong crowd helps out and go out when you have to
Good to know!
Yeah there’s not a lot of random crime in Louisville outside of car thefts and shit. If something goes down there’s almost always a reason why.
@@BeanDip96_ Yeah, and snitches get stiches. No one saw anything.
Not just the west end or south end is dangerous, something is happening in all neighborhoods of Louisville,Ky. I lived here all my life.
Read what you just wrote....
You're delusional
West , south dangerous , don't go out at night , stay away from certain crowd! Lol 🤣 that's the very definition of a dangerous city ...
Stop accepting a weak society ...is this what you want your children to live in ? Stop making excuses for the weak citizens and failures of a progressive metro.
My home!! My home is an amazing, progressive and cultural breathe of fresh air!! 502 in the house!! Ayyeee
Ayyyyyyeeeee
Ayee period lol
@@lexib6730 502Gang!
😂
Lol breath of fresh air!!!! Louisville looks like a coal miner town that thinks it’s a city
Hey.... My home town...
Yep old Louisville has some beautiful homes as well ! 🥰
Yes it does!
My city! born and raised! 502 stand up!
Exciting stuff
Of course
THANKS FOR COMING THROUGH MY Beautiful city and the WESTEND is a beautiful place to live The world is perfect it is the people the people let’s get that through our thick skills Louisville is a beautiful place thanks for riding through👍🏾👍🏾
SKULLS ☝🏾 Correction
I live here And in the last 11 months this City has been over run with crime, fentanyl, meth, and defunded police stations. Its turned into a dump. LETS GO BRANDON
higher crime rate !!!!!! Per capita Looks peaceful in this video. thats cause its cold and daylight. Go 2 miles west at any given time and you will probably weitness a murder or see the investigation. Its out of control.
What police station has been defunded?
Lies, lies and more lies. Crime has risen all over the U.S. Nothing to do with just Louisville. It's far from a dump, ever been to Detroit, or Philadelphia?
@@feb111980mhh I think what he means is understaffed. Retirement, resignations, low morale lack of good leadership and general leftist sentiment and horseshittery have hobbled them. As a result there’s currently 200+ openings in LMPD that no one seems to want.
@@terrytgood6939 adjusted fo population it’s equal in all crime to both of the cities you mentioned and its on par with the likes of Chicago. Get your feelings out of it.
Welcome to Derby🐎 City!! So glad you got some of the Old Louisville neighborhood in there!! It is the third largest such district in the United States, and the largest preservation district featuring almost entirely Victorian architecture. If you would have continued on Market you would of ended up in another beautiful historic district.. Highands/Cherokee Triangle/Bardstown rd!! A lot nicer than OL, I believe so!!
Maybe next time haha
Those homes in Old Louisville looked pretty nice.
THANKS FOR PUTTING THAT OUT THERE ON POINT 1000 🥂HAPPY NEW YEAR 🤫
I lived there long time ago its crazy shootings and all but my place will always be Louisville my uncle Allen Murphy played for them in the 70s and painted on the side of the wall
THANKS 🙏🏽 BROTHER LOUISVILLE IS PERFECT GOD GAVE US THIS LAND BROTHER ITS THE PEOPLE THAT MAKES ANYPLACE unbearable at times all cities have the same type of people I wish people would recognize that👍🏾
I like Louisville KY. Such a lovely city that's home to Churchhill Downs.
Yep.wish i could go see it.i love horses.horse racing.love thoroughbreds.wanna go visit the kentucky horse park one of these days.
Except for the entire area surrounding the downs is a crime ridden ghetto.
@@jasonvaughn3478 when you say something like that, what is the end state you seek? Let it get worse? or effect change and try to improve it? Most of the folks who live in crime ridden parts of the city need help in their own ways. addiction, lack of parental figures, role models, etc. When you say "crime ridden ghetto" I suspect you just want it to stay that way?
Yes, I seek for it to stay that way
Churchill downs is in 1 of the worst areas of Louisville. You out of town ppl wouldn’t know
I like Louisville KY too!
Amazing video Kentucky Mike really enjoyed the video I honestly think Kentucky is cool hey have you ever thought of getting a dashcam
Maybe in the future
I love Louisville things have changed
For better or for worse?
Worse
Great place to live work great people
My hometown, Go Cards!
Nice city, I like.

HALLMARK ,SHAWNEE ,JACOBS , PARK DUVALLE ,LIMERICK, IROQUOIS, WYANDOTTE. YOU MISSED ALL THE SCENIC AREAS .

#502MyCity

You laser my house…
I luv my city born & raised here but it's not what it use 2 be, the crime/murder rate has truly destroyed a once layed back cool city & turned it into a war zone...🤦🏾♂️
Are you from Kentucky
What part
No, I'm from North Carolina.
❤🇺🇸❤
The highlight of the video is the homeless person walking pass at the 11:53 mark
Thats pretty much Louisville for you. People from there brag about old Louisville and James court or the highlands like those places will make someone from Miami, San Diego or Houston wanna pack up and run straight to Louisville LOL 😂
L’ville just did a sweep like a week or so, before his filming haha! But even before then L’ville had NOTHING on the “campgrounds” of Portland, LA, Seattle, SanFran, ect.. even Indianapolis.. 😉
@@JUSAGUYNKY there’s a video on CZcams right now about how bad Louisville’s homeless issue has become. I’m from Indianapolis and live in one it’s suburbs. Indy has a homeless issue as well and they do the same sweeps but only when major events come to town or if a major development is being built. The concern I would have with Louisville is that the population of Louisville is much smaller than Indy’s but there’s just as many homeless people.Doesn’t look good for either city but especially Louisville.
@@kevinpowell268
Oh I haven’t counted heads yet..
been too busy lol
@@JUSAGUYNKY I was really just being facetious but homeless is a serious issue in most cities. Some worse than others but it doesn’t make Louisville any worse than any other city
@@kevinpowell268 Ok we don't care
If i could i would move to Louisville KY
maybe a couple years ago. Promise you would regret it. People (good people) are leaving the city FAST
@@robertwinnall8120 one thing i disagree with you 💯 because that is a around the whole USA everyone is moved in and out fast
@@robertwinnall8120 why are you hating on Louisville?
@@scottadcock550 Im not hating. just stating the obvious. Since BLM destroyed downtown. And run so many businesses out. People from the east end dont even want to go downtown anymore. Go to 4th st live on a Sat, you will hear crickets. I live it!! I talked to visitors all the time that are hear on business. The first thing they ask me is "what happened to louisville"
Thats all i got to say. That speaks for itself
@@scottadcock550 there’s not exactly much to brag about
Only people who like it there are folks from there
I assumed you lived here. You are a visitor?
Yes. I travel to lots of places for leisure.
Why? Louisville is an armpit. We don't even like it here.
LOL
Who is we?
This would be a much better video if you talk to us and narrate. There's alot you could be telling about my city
Absolutely.
I love my town . Louisville has everything!
Looks the same as when i was born almost 30 years ago
Bro you need a new map of downtown Louisville. Baxter is in the Highlands and Cardinal Blvd is old Louisville. You skipped half of downtown. Why are people like doing tours of downtown but too scared to come to the downtown hood?
He’s not scared to go to the hood. This isn’t a hood channel anyways
Welcome to Klantucky!
You must be a member.
Yeah... Kentucky, especially Louisville is ABSOLUTELY NOT ANY THING TO DO WITH THE KLAN! IVE LIVED HERE SINCE BIRTH AND WE ARE A PROGRESSIVE AND CULTURAL ICON IN CASE YOU DID NOT KNOW! GET REAL AND QUIT TAKING SHIT YOU OBVIOUSLY KNOW NOTHING ABOUT! FREAK
@@LittleMissScareAllKy Looserville Klantucky ....
@@bettabefree5611 you are stupid, juvenile and wrong. Please. Be gone before someone drops a house on you Sir!
Oh, and btw... For someone with such a foreign name, it sure seems like you think you know an awful lot about my home, yet obviously you have not a fkn clue. Do not comment back. Or I swear, you'll not be happy with the result.
@@LittleMissScareAllKy He/she is probably just from Lexington. That’s what a lot of the “DIE-HARD, GO HARD OR GO HOME” UofK fans call Louisville lol
Careful not to get shot 🤷🏻♂️
Koo video. But not real. Drive down Jefferson homeless, market homeless, did u send the city to take all of there stuff and throw it in the garbage men,women,CHILDERN. WOW. CITY WITH HUMANITY
That's dang near every state with the same homeless issue
It's ugly, old, drab, conservative and unwelcoming. My hometown...
This is really cool. I have ancestors from this city :)
You approaced downtown from the west, you're either very brave or very foolish. Portland's not as bad as the west end but it ain't winning no safe neighborhood contests either.
West end isn’t even that bad! Especially during the day. You only find trouble if you’re looking for it
🎉😂❤🎉❤❤ subscribed for you...good luck 🤞
